Jawa:
The timeless style and iconic character of the original Jawa is reborn in this new Jawa. With an evolutionary aesthetic that retains the authenticity and familiarity of the past – classy, elegant, sophisticated, majestic – this one tuned for the legacy seekers. The Jawa in its form and function is the quintessential classic with old world character and truly modern performance.
Jawa forty two:
The classic that breaks the boundaries and experiments. With quirkiness in its design and unconventional traits, the forty two is a toned, muscled, sporty, aggressive version of a classic if there was ever one to be!
The Engine:
Both Jawa and Jawa forty two are powered by a 293cc liquid cooled, single cylinder, DOHC engine, built from the ground up in collaboration with the best of Italian engineering. It packs 27 bhp of power and 28 Nm of torque with a generous mid-range and a flat torque curve for an unwavering, consistently powered ride.

Jawa comes in three classic colours – Jawa Maroon, Jawa Grey and Jawa Black.
Jawa forty two comes in six fascinating colours – Glossy Metallic Red, Glossy Dark Blue, Matt Moss Green, Matt Pastel Blue, Matt Pastel Light Green and Matt Blue.
