          • Pros
          • Cons

            Jawa 42

            • Motor feels a lot more usable, with the torque spread evenly across the rev range. This helps in riding at moderate speeds at a gear higher, which wasn’t possible earlier
            • Improved overall quality, with good attention-to-detail elements like logo on the rim stickers
            • Is one of the lightest in segment, so moving around in traffic of tight parking spaces is easy

            Harley Davidson X440

            • Can cruise at 110kmph without much vibrations
            • Extensive list of features with all-LED lighting & smartphone connectivity
            • The motor has ample bottom-end grunt, not a lot of gear changes required in the city
            • Agile handling, changes directions quickly

            Jawa 42

            • The wide, low handlebars along with the high footpegs give off an unnatural riding posture
            • Stiff suspension results in the rider being thrown off while going over sharp bumps

            Harley Davidson X440

            • Soft cushioning of the seat could be annoying during long rides
            • Rear-end’s design with the straight tube exhaust doesn’t complement the front-end quite well
            • The exposed wiring setup doesn’t look quite premium
