Jawa was once a known name for 2-stroke motorcycles. Since emission norms does not allow the sales of these products, Jawa recently moved to the 4-stroke engines and brought this beautiful 350 OHC for its customers. The motorcycle is actually carrying the essence of past with its retro inspired design but brings a better 397 cc, air-cooled single cylinder 4-stroke engine producing 27.35 BHP at 6500 rpm and 30.6 Nm at 5000 rpm. The engine comes with fuel injection (Fi) and uses a 5-speed gearbox for smooth operations.
