The new Jawa 42 FJ is an appealing motorcycle, it comes with different colour options, better dimensions, a new engine with enhanced performance, and offers a good blend of a retro and modern motorcycles. The neo-classic segment has gained traction in the Indian market and the new Jawa 42 FJ has the potential to be a fierce rival in the segment. However, rivals like the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 provide better value for money and benefit from an extensive network of service centers nationwide, which the Jawa currently lacks.
