The Jawa 42 gets an update for 2024 featuring tweaks to its engine, longer travel suspension and better seat comfort.

Classic Legends has applied its learnings from the Jawa 350 and Yezdi Adventure and reworked the Jawa 42’s engine in a similar way.

Changes include a heavier magneto, larger throttle body and entry duct, and a CP4 cylinder head for better performance.

The result is a 294cc liquid-cooled motor that now produces 27.32hp and 26.84Nm of torque.

Jawa has also equipped the 42 with a slip and assist clutch and has included a gear based throttle mapping for smoother gear shifts.

Additionally, Jawa has also changed the mounting point for the rear shocks and has also added a new seat for better comfort.

While the base model starts at Rs 1. 73 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), the top model starts at Rs 1.98 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
