Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which bike to choose, Jawa or Classic 350?
  • Both the bikes are good in their forte. Classic 350 new engine is refined, powerful, and decently frugal. The fit and finish of the bike have improved tremendously. The Classic 350 finally gets a fuel gauge. On the other hand, Granted, Classic Legends have managed to retain the essence of the original Jawa, but the new and improved Jawa just doesn't feel as special as the original. Here's why. The bike's short-stroke, high-compression motor simply isn't meant for cruising. It revs hard and likes to be kept on the boil, attributes that are unlike any laidback cruiser. And that's what eats into the bike's charm. The Classic 350 and Imperiale 400, although slow, offer a comfortable and relaxed ride. Aspects you'd be looking at if you want to cross continents or simply cruise on the highway. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.Read more -Jawa vs Royal Enfield Classic 350.-2021 RE Classic 350 Road Test Review.
Q. मुझे jawa or meteor कौनसी खरीद करनी चाहिए?
  • Both Jawa Classic and Royal Enfield Meteor 350 are good cruiser bikes, however, selecting one would depend on certain factors such as your budget, features required, usage of the motorcycle, ride quality, etc. The Jawa uses a short-stroke, performance-oriented engine with a 6-speed transmission. Sure it’s fast, but it lacks the retro laidback charm of an under square engine, something we think is crucial for a buyer in this segment. The 293cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine generates 26.51PS of power and 27.05Nm of torque on the Jawa. On the other hand, the Meteor 350 gets a much refined 349cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled, counterbalanced engine that puts out 20.48PS and 27Nm. If you are looking for a comfortable cruiser with a thumper engine and a good amount of features, then the Meteor 350 would be a better pick. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of comfort and compatibility.
