Jawa Bikes in India (5)

There are 5 Jawa bikes available for sale in India: Jawa 42, Jawa 350, Jawa 43 Bobber, Jawa 42 FJ, and Jawa Perak. The Jawa bike price starts at ₹1.59 lakh and goes up to ₹2.00 lakh (ex-showroom). The brand’s cheapest model bike is Jawa 42, whereas the most expensive is Jawa Perak. 

Jawa does not offer any electric bike or electric scooter in India. The brand’s entire lineup consists of petrol motorcycles focused on the neo-retro and bobber segments. The Jawa bike mileage generally falls between 25 kmpl to 30 kmpl, depending on the model, riding conditions, and the variant selected.

In terms of engine capacity, Jawa 42 uses a 295cc engine, while all other Jawa bikes are powered by a 334cc engine. Jawa bikes primarily compete with Royal Enfield’s 350cc lineup such as the Classic 350, Hunter 350, and Meteor 350, along with neo-retro rivals like the Honda H’ness CB350 and CB350RS. It’s also important to note that Jawa does not sell adventure bikes. Adventure-style motorcycles from the group are sold under the Yezdi brand, which is Jawa’s sister company.

Jawa is a heritage motorcycle brand with roots dating back to 1929, and its modern India operations are handled by Classic Legends. Today’s Jawa motorcycles blend classic roadster and bobber styling with modern mechanicals to target riders who want retro design with everyday usability.

Trending Questions on Jawa Bikes - Answered by Autocar Experts

Asked by: Gladinon Dec 21, 2025

I am a first-time motorcycle rider, and I’m trying to decide between the Jawa 42 Bobber, Jawa Perak, Royal Enfield Meteor 350, Goan Classic 350, Triumph Speed 400, and Harley-Davidson X440. I’m 5'7”, 38 years old, and have a muscular build. Which of these bikes would be most suitable for me in terms of comfort, handling, and ease of riding? Also, do all of these bikes have an option for carrying a passenger comfortably?

First things first, the Jawa Perak and 42 Bobber are strictly single-seater bikes and have no provisions for carrying a pillion. These bikes are also rather stiff and uncomfortable, and we'd recommend steering clear unless you ride very little and mostly on smooth roads.
Coming to the other options you've shortlisted, the Triumph Speed 400 will be the dynamically most capable machine and also the fastest one. On the other end of the spectrum, you'll have the laidback but charming Royal Enfield 350s with their easy riding and torque-rich experience.
The Harley-Davidson X440 splits the difference between the Triumph and the REs. It all boils down to personal preference, so take a thorough test ride of everything you're considering before making a decision.

I want to upgrade my FZ-S to a 350cc+ neo-retro (not a sports bike). I’ve test-ridden most options except the Scram 440. My shortlist is the Guerrilla 450, Jawa 42 FJ and Triumph Speed 400. I liked the Jawa 42 FJ best, but online feedback about engine and service issues concerns me. The Guerrilla felt too aggressive, and the Speed 400 did not impress me visually and may be tall for my height. I need a premium-feeling bike for office use and occasional 100 km trips. I do not want a Classic 350. Please advise.

The latest Classic Legends bikes have come quite a way from their predecessors in terms of build quality and finish levels. The Jawa 42 FJ, in particular, is a machine we quite liked when we rode it. 

As a machine, it is a capable option, but we haven't had the chance to test its long-term reliability yet. You should also know that the company has a less-than-stellar reputation for after-sales and servicing, so do find out what the exact situation of Yezdi/Jawa service in your area is before you go ahead with the purchase. 

While you don't want the Classic, the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 is a good option if you want something similar in feel but different (read: modern) in its design. It is also one of the more manageable Royal Enfield bikes, which should be approachable for you. We would also recommend you test ride a Royal Enfield Scram 440 because it blends old-school charm and quite a lot of modern capability. 

You can also take a look at the Honda CB350 models because they look and feel more modern than their Royal Enfield counterparts and should be easy to manage in the city.
