The Jawa 42 Bobber 2025 is the most affordable factory-made bobber motorcycle in India Inspired by classic design and built with modern day performance, it is a great choice for riders who want to make an aggressive statement on the street with comfort and reliability.
Distinctive Bobber Styling
Elsewhere, the 42 Bobber keeps things close to classic bobber ethos—single seat set low, chopped rear fender and footpegs moved forward. Retro touches come in the form of the gloss black detailing, chrome-tipped twin exhausts and tear-drop fuel tank with rubber tank pads. The fat tyres, spoke wheels and minimalist profile are sure to turn heads on Indian roads.
Engine & Performance
This bike has a 334 cc, liquid-cooled single-cylinder unit under its fairing, producing a peak power output of close to 30 PS and max torque of around 32.7 Nm. A 6-speed gearbox for seamless power delivery, ideal High-Speed cruising. It’s fuel-injected to pass modern emissions tests — and for predictable throttle response as well.
Features & Ergonomics
- Fully-faired bodywork with full LED lighting including headlamp, taillight and indicators
- Digital instrument cluster with tripmeter and real-time fuel consumption
- Balanced ride comfort with telescopic front forks and rear mono-shock
- Safety: Dual-channel ABS and disc brakes.
- Single seating | Height adjustment handlebar from the factory for relaxed ergonomics
Variants & Color Options
The Jawa Motorcycle 42 Bobber is also on sale in three colors which are Mystic Copper, Moonstone White, and Jasper Red Dual-Tone. Every variant comes with a unique tank finish and detailing, too. These qualities make it interesting to mild and wild riders alike, but still at its core, it is a bobber.
Real-World Experience
The street presence and the smooth performance of its engine are things which owners like about this motorcycle. Though the above mentioned figures are more like average fuel efficiency (between 25 to 30 km/l for me), economy is not everything — power and style come at a price. But feedback also noted that clearance isn’t exactly great, and the ride feels stiff over rough roads.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Striking retro styling
- Strong mid-range torque
- Modern digital features
- Cons
- Average mileage
- Limited ground clearance
Person on the back is not meant for daily usage
Final Verdict
For those who are into the classic appeal of a bobber design coupled with modern function, there might just be the right thing for them in the Jawa 42 Bobber 2025. The most go-kart bike on here, the #YZF-R15V3 is a hoot and barely practical for daily commutes while also being impossible to live without if you want premium build quality and sexiest bobber design of all.
