Jawa Motorcycles 350 and Royal Enfield Hunter 350 Competitors

Recently Asked User Questions

Q. For long Drive Which one is good JAWA or Royal Enfield Thunderbird?
  • Thats true, Jawa is a city bike with a contradictory gear box, i.e., seating posture is for the city, but gear box is for the highway. Also Jawa's pickup had no competition in those earlier days, but now things are different, with plenty of options. Young boys maturing to ride bikes will prefer sporty bikes. Jawa will be preferred by more mature men starting from around their 30s, and by that time men will be family men and for them a short seat like that in Jawa will not serve their family purposes. So most men who are Jawa enthusiasts will have to drop their enthusiasm for Jawa and opt for other options. Lack of tubeless tyre options will also deter many from opting a Jawa. If Classic Legends do not take these into consideration, then Jawa might have a bleak future.
  • Hello Daniel, both bikes are very capable and very retro in their looks. The Jawa however has an edge in the performance department. If you are looking for leasurely cruising then the Thunderbird will suffice. However if you need a higher speed and the benefit of a sixth gear to cruise at higher speeds, yet at lower rpm, then it has to be the Jawa. Why don't you take a test drive of both and then decide.
  • Thunderbird is best one. Jawa is a city bike not a tourer

Q. What the difference between Jawa bikes and Royal Enfield in reference to price, performance, service etc. Is it true that the waiting period for Jawa bikes is 6 month
  • I don't think you've made a ride with the jawa, because the performance is much better than the Enfield ones.Enfield truly lacks power and in terms of smoothness and handling Enfield isn't even close.where enfield gets the benchmark is the service cost and volume of the bike
  • Costlier than Royal Enfield . In performance Royal Enfield is good. Regarding service wehave wait until it hits the road. Regarding waiting period it is falsely over hyped by jawa. To create more booking.
  • Waiting period is 8 months. Booked it today. RE is far inferior compared Jawa in ride quality, comfort, handling, pick up, smoothness, Fewer or no vibrations etc.

Q. Which is a better bike either Jawa 42 or Jawa Classic, sir, 42 and jawa classic is looking very short when compared Royal classic (looking height length also)
  • Jawa classic holds the legacy of the original Jawa in 19th century with similar looks and comparable performance. The 42 is the byproduct of the classic. If you are strong to the roots and want to be part of jawa legacy then go for jawa classic and if you want just a bike to ride and with modern looks go for jawa 42. In my opinion if you want a jawa then go for jawa classic
  • Yes,but jawa is good and robust than royal Enfield.it is suitable for any height .but when you compare jawa 42 with standard jawa I will prefer standard jawa and if with royal Enfield classic then I will tell inspite of jawa is smaller than Royal Enfield classic jawa is always jawa .I am the owner of both jawa and royal Enfield jawa is better.
  • Jawa is suitable for short riders too. If you want more show, the Jawa is best. If you need something else, then 42 is better.

    Got my jawa maroon classic 

    Got my jawa maroon classic in 2020.Didn't get to ride much.But whatever i rode, I was utterly disappointed.The vehicle is too heavy to pull or push.The rear wheel appears to spin hard.When asked the showroom mechanic, He said it was due to a 'large rim'!!!!! the clutch lever is so hard it results in wrist aching.No solution from the mechanic.The sound is not impressive, And it is on the irritating side.The sound that continues for some time after the engine is stalled after a ride is even more irritating.Riding comfortably for short distances is fine, But can be painful in long hauls.Pick-up, Speed, Etc are ok.Now the major flaws.Within one year, The silencer and the leg guards started rusting, And surprisingly, The silencer developed holes too! so much so for the mahindra quality.Try parking the vehicle on the centre stand.You should be a weight lifter!!! overall, The vehicle looks awesome although do not replicate the original jawa.The quality of the materials is pathetic.Mechanics such as hardness in wheel spin, Clutch lever, And center stand are painful to the rider.The sound is unimpressive and irritating.The mileage is not great.

    It has been a year since I bought the Royal Enfiel 

    It has been a year since I bought the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 and it is truly a delight for daily commutes and occasional leisure rides. This bike, with its 349cc engine generating about 20 horsepower and 27 Nm torque, stands out with its retro charm and modern touches.The Hunter 350 is lighter and more agile compared to other Enfields makes it a breeze to handle specially in urban settings. It’s also quite fuel efficient, a necessity in today’s economic scenario.

    I like but this is average bike 

    The taste of the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 excites riders with its modern cruiser influence that engages the old-time engine design. The car's relaxed seating area, smooth running engine, and nimble handling for both city and highway trips earned itself a reputation amongst customers as a pleasing car to drive. The bike's trendy look, the LED lighting, and the features such as Bluetooth connectivity from the latest esinal era ride to tailor the needs of the techno-aficionados. Nonetheless, if we consider the misses, we should state that there was a wish for improved wind protection at higher speeds, and to that sentiment, the manufacturers of the bikes should address this issue by making the braking system for added security.

    Sturdy structure 

    My experience has been wonderful as well, And you may buy it.This bike is available in a range of colors, Allowing you to choose the one that best meets your needs.It also has excellent oil mileage and can be utilized off-road.However, The most serious issue is that this bike is too small to include a seat.I bought my hunter 350 dapper grey in january 2023.It's a wonderful royal enfield motorcycle with a fantastic look and feel.It is a compact, Heavy bike with plenty of power.With its sturdy structure and superb suspension, It provides a smooth and comfortable ride at a speed of approximately 25-30 km/h.The royal enfield hunter 350 has a classic, Powerful appearance.It grabs attention on the road with its muscular lines, Traditional round headlamp, Teardrop fuel tank, And basic yet eye-catching tail section.The brand's lineage is evident in the superb attention to detail, Immaculate paintwork, Premium components, And strong overall construction.The hunter 350 offers great performance.Its clever 350cc single-cylinder engine provides an exciting ride.The engine's smooth power distribution and lots of low-end torque make driving through traffic and on the highway comfortable.Riding on this motorcycle is made more enjoyable by its comfort and confidence.One of the hunter 350's outstanding features is how well it handles.Exquisite stability and precise handling are made possible by the precisely adjusted suspension and chassis.Navigating tight areas and winding highways is made confidently easy by the hunter 350's poised and agile manner.The braking system's rapidity and ample stopping force further increase overall safety.Additionally, Royal enfield has stayed abreast of industry advancements in technology.The hunter 350 skillfully blends classic style with contemporary features including usb charging port, Computerized instrument cluster, And led lighting.This motorcycle good at1.Little bonneville2.Initial power supply up to 60 mph3.Well-crafted exhausttone4.Vibrant colours5.The throw and spread are excellent even if the head light is halogen.6.The gasoline tank's paint job is excellent.7.Superb riding triangle with foot pegs positioned slightly back.8.The gears mesh well, With no gaps or leaps.9.An oem-fit amaron battery is supplied.10.Extra fuses that re installed in the fuse box in case something goes wrong with the ones that are already in use.Bad at1.Many low-quality plastic pieces, Particularly the side covers and headlamp2.There's nowhere to store paperwork or other items3.An uneven construction.There's a lot to be desired, Particularly with the welding sections.4.A waiting time and no discounts apply to recently introduced bikes.5.Stock mirrors shake a lot during dragging and after the vehicle reaches 80 kmph.Better would be:1.The switch gear is passable but might be better.2.The stock mrf is not a fair representation of the bike, Despite its excellent appearance.Rear tires need to be replaced with grippy ones.3.Even with the advent of led lighting, Re still uses halogen lights.4.The clutch may have been lighter but is on the heavy side.The royal enfield hunter 350 is a very light, Nimble, And enjoyable motorcycle! the hunter makes great sense as an entry-level motorbike, And it might even tempt riders moving up from smaller bikes, Who haven't yet found an affordable, Comparatively light, And agile roadster in the royal enfield lineup.The chassis's short wheelbase, Precise steering geometry, And small size all contribute to its agility.Maybe a bit more action would have elevated the bundle to a great level.
