Jawa 42 recently claimed a speedo-indicated top speed of 143 kph. The motorcycle is powered by a single-cylinder 293cc, liquid-cooled and fuel injected engine producing 27 BHP of maximum power and 28 Nm of healthy torque. The values are good enough to bring 0-60 kph in 5.1 seconds while 100 kph takes 13.2 seconds from a standstill.

The bikes with similar displacement are faster in comparison but, they are built with the purpose of speeding while Jawa motorcycles are made for leisure riding with a focus on healthy torque delivery. The missing pinch of aerodynamics and use of good-looking metallic parts (weight increase) added almost 4 seconds to the 0-100 kph sprint times.
The impressive exhaust note at 143 kph clears the fact that riding a Jawa fast can also bring goosebumps like any other sportbike. The range of motorcycles starts at INR 1.55 lakh for the Forty-Two and INR 1.64 lakh for the Jawa 300. The prices mentioned here are ex-showroom. Classic Legends recently inaugurated 2 Jawa showrooms in Pune.
