Jawa BS6 Price:

The BS6-compliant Jawa starts from Rs 1,77,351 (for the black and grey variants with single-channel ABS) after the price revision. The two colours with a dual-channel ABS retail at Rs 1,86,293. The range-topping Maroon costs Rs 1,78,415 (for the single-channel ABS variant) and Rs 1,87,357 (for dual-channel ABS). All prices are ex-showroom Delhi. 

Jawa BS6 Features:

The Jawa looks pretty similar to the original bike from the ‘70s, right from the horn (positioned between the front fork and the fuel filler cap) to the dome-shaped headlamp that extends to cover the front forks. You have easy-to-reach handlebars, vintage-style fenders, and an old-fashioned analogue instrument console with a small digital inset for the odometer readings. The bike features the same maroon paint scheme with chrome elements. The lighting system is all-bulb. Jawa provides the bike with an option between single-channel and dual-channel ABS. However, we recommend you go for the dual-channel ABS variant for increased safety. 

Jawa BS6 Engine: 

The BS6-compliant model produces 27.33PS and 27.02Nm from the 293cc, fuel-injected, single-cylinder engine. The engine is linked to a 6-speed transmission.

Jawa BS6 Suspension & Brakes:

Except for the BS6-compliant motor, the underpinnings of the motorcycle have remained unchanged. The Jawa uses a telescopic fork and gas-charged shock absorbers at the rear with 5-step preload adjustability. Anchoring the bike is a disc brake up front and a rear drum or disc unit. Its 18-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels come wrapped in MRF Nylogrip tyres. Compared to the BS4 model, the BS6-compliant bike’s kerb weight is 172kg, up by two kilos. 

Jawa BS6 Rivals:

The Jawa BS6 competes against the 2021 Royal Enfield Classic 350 and the Benelli Imperiale 400. In terms of pricing, the retro motorcycle competes with the KTM 250 Duke, the new Honda Hness CB350, and the Dominar 400.
