                  • Makes more power and torque than its predecessor
                  • Comes with an alloy wheel variant to increase practicality
                  • Gets an LED headlight which is better than the halogen from its predecessor

                • 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

                  Royal Enfield Scram 440

                  • The tripper navigation pod comes as an accessory but we feel it should have been offered as standard
                  • The dry weight has gone up by 2kg and is now 187kg
                  • Some riders might find it outdated because it is making use of the older Himalayan 411 chassis

                  My review of jawa 42 bobber
                  The looks of the bike is absolutely fenomenal the bike is extremely unique because no brand offers a proper bobber bike for such affordable price only few bobber bikes are available in india for ex indian bobber or triumph bonnevile bobber and this jawa 42 bobber this bike is almost amazing to ride and it brings pure joy and fun fully value for money. Extremely good. i have ridden many types of bikes from many different brands but this is absolutely beautiful to ride, the performance is absolutely good although i have few minor issues like heating issue. oh man please i have special request to jawa that please do something about heating issue, the bike heats so much it is unbelievable, also sometimes just sometimes the front brakes make wierd noises and also i have another small issue which is rear brakes. rear brakes are very weak. i will always recommend to use front brakes because rear brakes are very weak of this bike so be careful with brakes, otherwise besides these minor issues the bike is absolutely perfect to ride and beautiful. I would definitely recommend this bike, why because this is bike that is only one and only in its segment, no brand i repeat no brand makes or offer affordable proper bobber motorcycle, some brand try to replicate like royal enfield but this outclass classic 350 very easily, the price is extremely affordable for such a bike.

                  BEST INVESTMENT FOR FUTUTR
                  Best investment for future, best in looks and best for small height people. Good mileage, if you want to mode then this is the best, ground clearance is short which makes it more attractive. Best finance offers from jawa yezdi chandigarh, if you want a bobber style bike then this is the bike you should go for.

                  The attractive appearance. When I saw it first time, it became my favourite bike. It's floating single seat is amazing. It stands out with its unique and eye-catching bobber design. It offers a comfortable riding experience for both city roads and highways. The Jawa 42 Bobber offers a smooth ride, strong performance, comfortable ergonomics and confident handling. Its unique bobber styling, premium finish and great road presence make every ride enjoyable. I will highly recommend this bike for its style, design, smooth performance, ride comfortable and strong road presence. It will be my first recommendation for any one who want unique and attractive appearance.

                  My riding experience
                  The biggest reason is its appearance. The floating single seat, wide rear tyre and minimalist design made it stand out. I loved the custom bike look straight from the factory. That made me choose this bike. As a solo rider, I find the seat comfortable for daily commute and short to medium highway trips although the suspension is a bit firm on rough roads. As for mileage, it is around 25 to 30 kmpl in normal riding. A solo rider would love this bike for various purposes such as everyday use or short commute or even long road trips in various terrain. The fuel to kilometre capacity is not a problem for me. Considering the current petrol crisis in India, this bike is quite manageable.

                  Bikers story
                  Stylish design with bold looks, better options good height of the seat. The seat is very comfortable. I like the suspension of the bike, it's very comfortable in the hilly areas it also suits good with Indian road conditions. My ride so far was very comfortable with scram 440 with better mileage good suspension quality and the seat quality which makes it better for long rides the mileage also is quite well and the power which it creates makes it a unique one. Yes, I would like to personally recommend bike for adventure lovers, full like to take the bikes on the long tours and the rough terrain where there are silly roads where it challenge the bike and it will give you hundred percent result.

                  The Perfect All Rounder
                  I wanted a do-it-all motorcycle. Something that I would love on the highway, and be comfortable with in the city as well. After a few test rides I was clear, that I preferred a thumper over a high revving machine. I stretched my budget from 2.5 lakhs to 2.75 lakhs (on-road) because this bike hit the sweet spot of balancing all that I needed. Upright riding posture, decent power to cruise, reliable brand and after sale support. The bike is smooth, powerful enough, and agile. It has just the right amount of everything. 100kmph in 6th gear on the highway, and great low end torque in the city, are things to love about this. Standing up and riding over bad roads feels like gliding through when others are carefully inching forward. My first service costed me under Rs. 1500 and the whole process was pretty seamless. The only concern one may have is the weight, at 196kg this bike is on the heavier side. 100% recommended. For anyone who has love for a thumper, powerful yet calm, sleek yet solid motorcycle. This bike is versatile, and checks all boxes for a single bike garage. Being part of the Royal Enfield ecosystem also has its share of advantages, easily serviceable, inexpensive and easily available spares make this purchase more sensible over alternatives.

                  Skip the Scram
                  The Dominar 400 is old. The 250 Adventure is too high for my height. That is why I chose the Scram 440 in the same budget. I am almost 40 years old returning to motorcycling after 12 years. The bike seemed to have a character and an old school charm. The suspension is pathetic. The seat is pathetic. The handlebar ergonomics is not good. The engine is smooth and has character. Mileage is bad, first service is pending though. Headlight non existent. No. I can't recommend this bike unless you are an RE fan. I feel sorry for not buying the Dominar 400. Mileage is not good (1st service pending). Bad ergonomics. It's not possible to understand the ergonomic problems in a 1.5 km test ride.

                  Budget friendly city and touring bike
                  I thought to go for Himalayan 450 but budget was too high plus i am beginner with small legs so it was hard to handle. I bought this for 2.5 lacs. I choose this bike because of the service reach of royal Enfield. Even local shop know about this engine so it easy and trusted to do touring. I thought to buy truimph scrambler but budget and service reach while touring was my concern so i choose scram 440. I have ridden my bike for 22k kilometres. It best for touring in rainy and off-road terrain. We can cruise from 110 -120 for 400 km non stop. I have driven this bike till depth thanks to the High exhaust position. We can push to 135 but its not advisable in Indian road and emergency breaking at the speed with heavy bike is not possible. Its 19 inch wheels helps in city and long travel suspension helps in off-road. This bike is head Turner because no one knows about this model much. Yes, it best for those who go to office in city and long tour in bike as well . The low end torque is good and if you expect top speed, its not for you. I have travelled 1200 km in 2 days. If you want budget friendly 400cc touring motorcycle go for it .The free service cost is very low below 1 or 1.5 k. But after 20 km, its expensive (but less for a 400cc bike).

                  MY SEVEN YEARS DREAM
                  I have been using this vehicle for the past four months and it has been a comfortable and smooth experience for both city rides and long drives the seating position is relaxed the suspension handles bumps well and the engine performance is consistent even on longer routes Its easy to maneuver in traffic and stable at higher speeds making it a great choice for daily commutes as well as weekend trips and i waited for seven years to buy a royal enfield bike and I think I made the right choice by purchasing this vehicle and if u are planning to buy this vehicle don't think just buy 😊😊
