Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Jawa 42 Bobber
- Comfortable riding posture
- Agile handling characteristics
- Gorgeous looks
- Exciting performance from the peaky motor
- Decent suspension setup for a bobber
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 Bobber
- The engine’s peaky nature leads to vibrations on the handlebar, footpegs, and fuel tank
- Should have gotten a smoother gearbox
- Fit and finish levels of the instrument console could have been better
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.

The Classic road presence
It's good if you want it for riding in city fir short distances..the looks are just awesome..It has a nice road presence and it will surely be worth it as it grabs attention of everyone in road and it's pickup is also good while riding in mountains I enjoy passing and it's classy design is definately worth it only issue with this is that some people might find it costly or high maintainance..and second is that as I am 6 feet so some minor issues if you are 5'9 5'10 just go for it best bike

Jawa 42 bobber
The Jawa 42 Bobber is one of the most eye-catching motorcycles in the cruiser segment. It’s a bold blend of retro charm and modern attitude, aimed at riders who want to stand out while enjoying a relaxed, yet powerful ride.Powered by a 334cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine, the bike churns out around 30.64 PS of power and 32.74 Nm of torque. The performance is smooth and torquey, especially in the mid-range. It’s great for city rides and weekend cruises, though not built for high-speed touring.
