          Pros & Cons

          • Pros
          • Cons
          • Honda CB350RS

            • The neo-retro design has been executed very well and the bike looks pretty good
            • Engine is very smooth and refined, with no vibrations felt even at higher speeds
            • Brakes are very responsive and provide good feedback

            Jawa 42

            • Motor feels a lot more usable, with the torque spread evenly across the rev range. This helps in riding at moderate speeds at a gear higher, which wasn’t possible earlier
            • Improved overall quality, with good attention-to-detail elements like logo on the rim stickers
            • Is one of the lightest in segment, so moving around in traffic of tight parking spaces is easy
          • Honda CB350RS

            • Is quite a bit expensive when compared to its rivals
            • Lacks a distinct flavour, and feels like just a slightly altered variant of the CB350 H’ness
            • Engine lacks the bottom end torque expected from a long stroke motor

            Jawa 42

            • The wide, low handlebars along with the high footpegs give off an unnatural riding posture
            • Stiff suspension results in the rider being thrown off while going over sharp bumps

            Overall experience of the vehicle is really good be it the exhaust sound or engine performance or looks it's amazing, except the engine heats up a lot and fit and finsh of the vehicle needs to be improved like the seat or the fuel tank shakes a little bit.

            You can go for it
            Good looking and heavy performance , above average comfort, design can be modified, more dashing with double silencer and many more. Two people can comfortably sit. It have a good price but not so much features and exhaust note is also poor in comparison to hunter 350 still having double silencer . So it totally depends upon u

            I have 42 Cosmic rock dt , bike is performance vice so great it smokes RE’s and great features and comfort and safety , breaking is accurate and to the point , i dont feel any issue at all regarding ground clearance. It is decent . The only problem is mileage, i get only around 25 in the city and 30 on highway with avg speed of 80 and other problem is engine heating , yes it heats alot. Overall bike is great i love it . Just the mileage and heating is negative point
