2024 Jawa 42 FJ - Finally A Good Rival to Royal Enfield 350s

The new 2024 Jawa 42 FJ has finally gone on sale at a starting price of Rs 2 lacs, whereas the top-end variant costs around Rs 2.20 lacs (ex-showroom). With several improvements in engine, suspensions, chassis and quality, this finally looks a worthy rival to Royal Enfield Classic 350 and Hunter. The Jawa 42 FJ gets a more powerful 334cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled DOHC engine that puts out 29bhp and 29.6Nm making it the most powerful motorcycle in the Jawa 42 Family. What all has improved, and what can still be done is what we have discussed in this video. Disclaimer - The motorcycle was given to us by Classic Legends during a launch event in Mumbai.
