          Pros & Cons

          • Pros
          • Cons
          • 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

            Jawa Perak

            • The engine feels more easygoing than the shorter-geared classic Jawa.
            • Can cruise at 100kmph all day long with little to no vibes.
            • Suspension setup is on the firmer side but it does a decent enough job at filtering bumps.
          • 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

            Jawa Perak

            • Build quality has improved compared to the BS4 Jawa, but it still feels a bit rough around the edges.
            • Riding posture feels a bit cramped for a 5’10” frame like mine.
            • The vanilla exhaust note and lack of modern features is a bit of a letdown.

            Jawa perak is very appealing
            Firstly, i must say that Jawa perak is very appealing. Long distance commuting is possible with this one but not with any luggage. It is not a tourer bike because you cannot.....
