Spy shots indicate that the upcoming Jawa 350 will retain its classic design, embracing the nostalgic vibe. Speculations suggest substantial mechanical modifications. The heavily camouflaged motorcycle spotted in Mumbai signifies Jawa's commitment to continuous innovation. Presumably named the Jawa 350, this classic roadster pays homage to Jawa's historic '350' legacy. Notably, the test model features a significantly larger seat with enhanced cushioning, promising a more comfortable riding experience compared to its predecessor.
The Jawa Standard might undergo chassis revisions to accommodate the larger engine, although specific hardware changes remain undisclosed. Potential additions of new features and subtle cosmetic updates are anticipated. While the introduction of new paint schemes is a possibility, the iconic maroon trim, accentuated by chrome elements, is likely to be retained in the revamped model.
Powertrain: This Is Where The Magic Happens
The addition of the '350' designation is attributed to the substitution of the previous 294.72cc engine with a larger 334cc mill, shared with the Jawa 42 Bobber and Perak models. Although details about the adjustments are currently undisclosed, it is speculated that the company may have fine-tuned the engine to provide a differentiating riding experience compared to the Bobber and Perak. Potential variations in power and torque output figures from the existing 30.2bhp and 32.74Nm configurations are anticipated.
The upcoming Jawa 350 is expected to carry a higher price tag compared to the Jawa Standard, which is priced at Rs. 1.81 lakh (single-channel ABS) and Rs. 2.03 lakh (dual-channel ABS), ex-showroom. The extent of the price increase is yet to be determined. The motorcycle will continue to compete with rivals such as the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and the Honda CB350.
Verdict
The anticipation for the upcoming Jawa 350 is building as the motorcycle, set to feature a larger 334cc engine, promises a blend of classic design and modern performance. While details on pricing remain awaited, the Jawa 350 is expected to position itself as a formidable contender in the competitive segment, challenging rivals like the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and the Honda CB350. Motorcycle enthusiasts eagerly await the unveiling to witness how Jawa enhances its iconic legacy with this revamped model.
