Jawa 42 Version 2.1: What’s new?

Jawa recently launched the 42 Version 2.1 in India. And we also got to ride the motorcycle about which you can read in the expert reviews section, or watch our detailed review on the BikeWale YouTube channel. Here we tell you all that is new on the new Jawa 42. 

New colours and graphics 

Beginning with the most obvious addition, Classic Legends is offering a choice of three new colour options with the Jawa 42 2.1. You can have the motorcycle in All Star Black, Sirius White or Orion Red. And apart from these, the Jawa 42 2.1 also gets new graphics with a racing stripe running along the tank as well as the the ‘42’ and ‘Classic Legends’ branding in quite a few places.

Dark theme 

Complementing the new colours is the dark theme of the motorcycle. All the chrome components that feature on the standard model including, engine, suspension, exhaust and wheels have all been blacked-out to amplify the motorcycle’s custom look.

New wheels and added accessories

Not only are the wheels blacked-out, the 42 2.1 sports alloy wheels unlike the standard model’s chrome units. However, they are still 18-inches for the front and 17-inches for the rear. Classic Legends has also thrown in bar-end mirrors on the Jawa 42 2.1 to complete the dark custom look. Furthermore, the company is also offering headlamp grille and small flyscreen as optional accessories.  

Untouched mechanicals 

Apart from these changes, the Jawa 42 2.1 remains identical to the standard version and comes with a 293cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine, a small LCD screen fitted in the instrument cluster as well as dual-channel ABS as standard.
