          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

            Triumph Speed 400

            • Easy to ride bike for everyone
            • Looks premium, good build quality
            • Affordability
          • 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

            Triumph Speed 400

            • Brakes can be slightly better
            • No smartphone connectivity, even as an option
            • Suspension is slightly soft for aggressive cornering

            About jawa42
            I'm loving the classic modern design of the Jawa 42! 🤩 The twin exhaust adds a touch of retro charm. Plus, the high pickup and top speed make it a blast to ride. It's perfect for long rides with its impressive mileage and reliable brakes. Anyone else a fan of this beauty? #Jawa42 #Motorcycle #ClassicModern

            Jawa 42 black dual abs and alloy
            Bike is in exceptional good condition as less driven by me. I had to move to banglore this didn’t get much time to drive it. I have full service record till date of timely maintenance. If you are looking for a bike which is very less driven than this is the chance to grab it as early as possible. Price is negotiable but not too much.

            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

            Premium bike with very minimal compromise
            I have brought the speed 400 , 5 months before since then i love and enjoy to ride the bike , going with the pros first , stylish , good performance , nice handling , less maintenance, and cons , i had an issue with the fuel indicator and the mileage, the fuel indicator is fixed by the service center but the mileage is not fix The service center experience was good , you can book an appointment of your convenience and go , the formalities are done withing 15 mins , some times we can stay and collect the bike within 30 mins or we can collect the bike in the next day Riding the bike feels so premium and safe , and asked all my clg mates about the bike and everyone said its better than Royal Enfield in most cases If you are looking for a performance and premium bike in around 3L segment this bike it for you . And if you also need more mileage like 30km/l this bike it not for you , it gives around 25-28 km/l

            My opinion about Speed400
            Hi, I’m experiencing exceptional comfort with this bike, and its performance truly makes me feel like I’m riding a premium bike. While the exhaust sound is slightly quieter compared to other classic bikes, if you’re looking for a modern classic, the Triumph Speed 400 is an excellent choice. In the 400cc segment, this bike stands out as the best.
