Jawa inaugurates its first set of showrooms in India

- First two showrooms opened in Baner and Chinchwad area of Pune

- Bookings and test rides have commenced at both the dealerships

- Company plans to have 100 dealerships across India in the first phase

The wait for Jawa fans has come to an end in Pune as Classic Legends has inaugurated India’s first two dealerships in the city. The dealerships are located in the Baner and Chinchwad area of Pune. Bookings and test rides have been initiated for both the newly launched bikes – Jawa Standard and Forty Two. These are the first two dealerships among the planned 100 which will be set up in metro, tier 2 and tier 3 cities over the next three months across India. 

The company says that the dealerships have been designed in-line with the modern-classic theme that the Jawa bikes evoke. The dealerships were inaugurated in the presence of top officials of Classic Legends including Boman Irani (chairman and managing director) and Ashish Joshi (chief executive officer).

Classic Legends has brought back the Jawa brand in India with two models – Jawa and Forty Two. Both the bikes carry the quintessential Jawa styling with the standard being laden with chrome and the Forty Two consisting of blacked out modern bits. Both bikes are powered by a 293cc, liquid-cooled, single cylinder, DOHC engine that generates 27bhp of power and 28Nm of torque. 

The Jawa Standard is priced at Rs 1.65 lakhs while the Forty Two demands for Rs 1.56 lakhs (both prices are ex-showroom, Pune). We have ridden the Jawa and Forty Two and you can read about the experience here and here.
