Pros and Cons

Pros
Cons

Jawa 42

Extra convenience offered thanks to the addition of alloy wheels.
Fit and finish levels have improved massively.
Motor feels a lot more tractable and usable.

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

Has a slightly unnatural riding posture.
Gear shifts feel clunky.
Lacks modern elements like LED lighting and a smartphone connectivity module.

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.
