The new Jawa 42 is here to steal the spotlight in 2025! A perfect blend of retro charm and updated performance, this bike is making waves in the Indian two-wheeler market. If you’re someone who loves timeless design with a punch of power, Jawa 42 might just win your heart.
Design – Old School Vibes with a Modern Touch
The design of Jawa 42 continues to flaunt that iconic retro look – rounded headlamp, teardrop fuel tank, and chrome detailing. But this time, it comes with new color options, blacked-out elements, bar-end mirrors, and alloy wheels that give it a more aggressive and youthful stance.
Engine & Performance
Powering the Jawa 42 is a 294.72cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that delivers 27.3 PS of power and 26.84 Nm of torque. The engine is tuned for better throttle response and smooth cruising on highways. It comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox that ensures slick gear shifts without lag.
Ride Quality & Handling
Whether you’re riding through city streets or taking long highway rides, the Jawa 42 offers a balanced and planted feel. The suspension setup – telescopic forks at the front and twin shock absorbers at the rear – absorbs bumps quite well. The low seat height and light handlebar make it easy for everyday use too.
Features
While it sticks to its classic look, the Jawa 42 offers practical features like a digital-analog instrument cluster, side-stand engine cut-off, and dual-channel ABS for added safety. It’s not overloaded with tech but delivers where it matters.
Price & Variants
Jawa 42 comes in multiple variants and color choices. The starting price is around Rs. 1.98 lakh (ex-showroom). Depending on accessories and finish, the price may go slightly higher. But for what it offers, it stands as a great value in the retro bike segment.
Jawa 42 vs Royal Enfield Classic 350
Compared to the Classic 350, Jawa 42 is lighter, more agile, and offers slightly better acceleration. However, RE scores with a more refined engine and wider service network. If you prefer sporty retro over a classic thump, Jawa 42 makes a stronger case.
Jawa 42 is for those who want a classic-looking motorcycle without compromising on modern-day riding comfort. It’s stylish, fun, and decently priced. Whether you’re a college student or a working professional, this bike adds a touch of personality to your garage.
