Jawa Motorcycles’ Perak bobber will not be launched in Nepal initially
Jawa Motorcycles, under Classic Legends (a subsidiary of Mahindra & Mahindra group), plans to enter Nepal in the coming months. The Czech-origin two-wheeler manufacturer has invited applications for new dealerships in Nepal. In the initial stages, only the ‘Jawa’ and 42 will be available, with no major revisions over its BS6-compliant Indian counterparts.

Colour choices for the entry-level Jawa 42 include Nebula Blue, Comet Red, Starlight Blue, Lumos Lime, Halley’s Teal and Galactic Matte. On the other hand, the Jawa ‘Jawa’ gets only three shades (in a chrome theme): Black, Grey and Maroon. There is no news on the Jawa Perak’s Nepal debut in the foreseeable future. In other news, Perak deliveries have finally commenced in India.
Exploring new markets
Earlier in May 2020, Jawa Motorcycles India revealed plans to export its products to potential European markets. Euro-spec examples will sport some minor changes to comply with local norms while styling and colour choices remain identical. Just like on our market, Jawa models will lock horns with Royal Enfield’s ‘UCE 350’ range in Europe. The next-gen ‘UCE 350’ lineup has reached the final stages of development.

Jawa Motorcycles India has got three products in its portfolio: 42, ‘Jawa’ (also known as Jawa Classic) and Perak. The first two are powered by a 293cc (bore x stroke: 76mm x 65mm) liquid-cooled DOHC single-cylinder engine good for 27bhp and 28Nm of torque.
Meanwhile, the range-topping Jawa Perak gets a 334cc version of the same, with bore x stroke rated at 81mm x 65mm. Thanks to increased displacement, the Perak makes roughly 30bhp and 31Nm. All three motorcycles get a 6-speed transmission.
Price
Jawa Motorcycles derived these two power plants from Mahindra Two Wheelers’ flagship product, Mojo 300. It was only recently that the touring motorcycle became compliant to BS6 emission norms. Prices start at Rs 1.99 lakh and go up to Rs 2.11 lakh depending on colour. In comparison, prices for Jawa models start at Rs 1.60 lakh (BS6 Jawa 42). All figures mentioned here are ex-showroom, Delhi.
Powering the 2020MY Mahindra Mojo 300 BS6 is a 295cc liquid-cooled DOHC single-cylinder engine generating about 25bhp and 26Nm of torque while mated to a 6-speed gearbox. It is available in four colours: Red Agate, Black Pearl, Ruby Red and Garnet Black. The motorcycle primarily rivals Bajaj Auto’s Dominar 400 while being an alternative to KTM India’s Duke 390/250 as well as BMW Motorrad India’s G 310 R BS6 (yet to launch).

Upset with his motorcycle, owner gets tries to get attention of the authorities at Jawa using donkeys
And another set of donkeys take centre stage. No, the donkeys were not used to chug the Jawa 42 in question. They were merely there for photographs. This seems a ceremonial protest. And is a tried and tested method. There have been occasional incidents of vehicle owners turning to donkeys to strength their protest against a dealership / manufacturer; when no solution to a problem is acceptable or satisfactory to the vehicle owner.

The poster refers to his Jawa 42 as a donkey bike, and further explains, ‘This donkey bike is good for nothing, neither is this company, don’t buy Jawa I wasted my money and don’t want others to. Join me in donkey rallies on this piece of crap at Udaipur.’
Well, for one there are no donkey rallies, but you get the gist. The original poster introduces himself, and goes straight for the jugular. His Jawa 42 ownership doesn’t sound to be pleasant one. The bike has stoped working multiple times since he purchased it almost 8 months earlier.

The engine stops, every time he rides over a distance of 100 kms. He’s quite adamant that ‘it happens every time’. That’s about the bike. He’s quite upset with the company and dealership staff too. The staff misbehaves when he complains at the dealership. This gripe isn’t further elaborated on though.
He says, company officials did nothing when he tried approaching them. The Jawa owner in question, a student says he’s paying big EMIs for the Rs 2 lakhs he spent, and he feels helpless now. He’s exasperation is expressed clearly in the following articulation, ‘The company takes the money and forgets its customers, they don’t understand something called after sales service.’
Unhappy Jawa Owner
He describes himself as a biking enthusiast, and it’s for this reason that that bought a Jawa. In retrospect, he laments ‘this was the biggest mistake of my life.’ He proceeds to a parting note of, Please don’t buy this piece of crap and waste your money, go for other options.’

The incident unfolded in front of the Jawa dealership. His twitter feed has an update that carries a screenshot of an email detailing the ‘issue regarding my Jawa 42’. There’s also a photograph of a Jawa 42 being readied to be transported on a small pick up. The Twitter account has been created fairly recently, and has no other updates barring three tweets, all of which mention Jawa.
The first 2 tweets in July are an interaction with the brand twitter account wherein Jawa has replied that ‘the concerned team will reach out and help resolve the issue’. His complaint at the time in 280 characters was, ‘look at my brand new jawa 42 which has stopped working 3 times in less than 8 months on complaining to company there is no response, heartbreaking for a middle class person like me, regret buying this crap and not buying Royal Enfield.’ More

Jawa has 3 motorcycles on sale in India currently – Jawa Classic, Jawa 42 and Jawa Perak
Jawa Motorcycles India has now introduced fully loaded Roadside Assistance (RSA). Designed to improve riding experience, the service provides assistance when support is needed, whether at home or when riding.

Benefits include getting a motorcycle repaired right away, depending on support required or towing it to service station in a safe manner. The safely being able to transport a vehicle parameter should be interpreted correctly as it determines whether or not RSA is available to you. Despite a difficulty, if you can safely take the vehicle to a nearby dealership or workshop, then RSA isn’t applicable. It’s to be called upon in the dire straits.
Jawa RSA – What is included
Jawa Motorcycles Roadside Assistance is available across a country-wide network. The toll free service option functions around the clock with coverage provided for upto 100 kms. Services include roadside repair, fuel assistance, and lost key retrieval. Safe towing, and urgent message relay is available in the instance of bike immobilisation. Support in medical coordination is listed. Jawa RSA was first introduced towards the end of May 2020 in select cities. RSA services in general include fixing a flat battery or tyre. carrying out minor repairs, and leave a message with relatives in case needed.

While the services are all encompassing, there are limitations to it. This may be in the form of how many times a certain RSA offering can be availed during a year of usage. There may also be a limitation of how many times help can be acquired across all parameters in a given year. The service maybe covered for a certain time limitation, and any service that requires more time than designated maybe further charged.
Jawa RSA – How much it costs?
Soon after launch, in December 2018 the red painted RSA van made its first appearance. The cost factor for Jawa RSA comes to Rs 1,000 – 1,300 per year. As of now, the RSA service appears to be available in a yearly format. For instance, in Calcutta the service is available for Rs 1,050, and is a cost that’s added during the purchase process. Current bike owners may already have opted for RSA as pert of their insurance cover depending on policy.
With the world depending on digital searches, interactions, and payments, Jawa Motorcycles has redesigned its website. While Jawa Perak deliveries were started a week earlier, there’s no knowing what the order books hold or for that matter how many units have been delivered, or what the delivery plan is. Numbers is something Jawa Motorcycles doesn’t talk about. Currently those who had booked Perak In January 2020 have delivery estimates of August or September 2020, as per the company’s Delivery Estimator app. More

The Perak bobber is the first product from Jawa Motorcycles to attain BS6 specifications
Jawa Motorcycles India, owned by Classic Legends (under Mahindra & Mahindra group), first launched its Perak bobber motorcycle back in November 2018, alongside the lesser ‘Jawa’ and 42 models at the company’s debut event. Earlier, deliveries were expected to start from 1st April 2019. But that did not happen. Perak was re-launched in Nov 2019, this time delivery date promised was 2nd April 2020. But pandemic played spoilsport.

But it seems the delays have come to an end. Jawa Perak deliveries have officially started today. Jawa Ahmedabad and Jawa Agra dealers have posted official photos on their social media channels, along with the first owners of the Perak in India. Online bookings were already opened for a token amount of Rs 10,000. Perak is available at an ex-showroom price of Rs 1.95 lakh ex-showroom.
As part of the ‘new normals’, processes are carried out in a safe and sanitised environment. Unlike the previous scenario wherein the company could not meet demand due to production inefficiency, COVID-19 came in the way this time. The initial delivery timeline was scheduled for early April; the peak of India’s COVID-19 lockdown protocols.

Jawa Perak Specs

Jawa Perak

The 2020MY Jawa Perak BS6 is powered by a 334cc (bore x stroke: 81x65mm) liquid-cooled DOHC single-cylinder engine. It generates 30bhp and 31Nm of torque. In comparison, the ‘Jawa’ and 42 employ a 293cc (76x65mm) version of this unit and make 27bhp and 28Nm. All three models get a 6-speed transmission. The power plant is a derivation of Mahindra Two Wheelers’ 295cc motor powering the Mojo touring motorcycle (BS6 update coming soon).
Other Jawas
Meanwhile, the base Jawa ‘Jawa’ and 42 were introduced in BS6 format earlier this year at an ex-showroom starting price of Rs 1.60 lakh and 1.73 lakh, respectively. The motorcycles look almost identical to their BS4 counterparts except for a redesigned exhaust system. Primarily rivals include Royal Enfield’s Classic 350 and Benelli India’s Imperiale 400. Royal Enfield is almost ready with its next-gen ‘UCE 350’ power plant, starting with the Meteor 350 (Thunderbird replacement).
On the other hand, the new Jawa Perak does not have any rivals in the entire single-cylinder motorcycle category. The closest bobber alternatives cost at least three times more and come with one or two cylinders more. More

Online bookings for the Jawa Perak BS6 are open at a token amount of Rs 10,000
Jawa Motorcycles India has most likely announced the date from which the Perak deliveries will start in India. Jawa has shared a secret message on social media, along with 3 images. One image carries the number 20, the next one has the number 7 and the last one has the number 2020.

These three photos are shared along with the caption – “Its birth under a veil of secrecy formed a habit that’s hard to break. Even today, it holds its cards close – visible only to those sharp of eye and keen of mind. Do you see it?” Combining the teasers along with this message, it is most likely the date 20-07-2020, which is when Perak deliveries are expected to start officially.

Jawa launch date teaser no 2
Owned by Classic Legends (a subsidiary of Mahindra & Mahindra group), the Czech-origin two-wheeler manufacturer introduced its new line of products, 42, ‘Jawa’ (or Jawa Classic) and Perak back in November 2018.

Jawa Perak delivery date teaser no 3
Although Jawa Motorcycles initially made a strong statement by introducing two compelling alternatives to Royal Enfield’s popular ‘UCE 350’ lineup, the company could not keep track of delivery times in the months that followed. Now, sales are gradually picking up albeit affected by COVID-19. The Jawa siblings primarily rival the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and Benelli Imperiale 400.
Initial Delivery Date

Coming to the Jawa Perak, the bobber-style single-seater has no direct rivals. Its closest alternatives come in the premium twin-cylinder middleweight category. Bookings were opened on 1 January 2020 and most dealerships still have one unit on display. Some dealers were also offering test rides. At first, Jawa Motorcycles planned a delivery timeline on the first week of April but had to postpone the same due to COVID-19 lockdown protocols.
Meanwhile, a few examples of the Jawa Perak BS6 were spotted doing test runs across different parts of the country. Since the motorcycle was already unveiled in full, the prototypes did not wear any camouflage.
Notable Highlights
Besides the obvious single-seater layout, the Jawa Perak has some interesting highlights. They include a single Black (actually dark grey) colour option with gold accents, tan seat, twin-exhaust system, bar-end mirrors, single-pod instrument console, spoke wheels, round lighting units alongside a host of model-specific accessories.
Specs & Powertrain
Powering the Jawa Perak BS6 is a 334cc (bore x stroke: 81x65mm) liquid-cooled DOHC single-cylinder engine. It generates 30bhp and 31Nm of torque.
