Expert's Opinion on 42 Bobber

Overview

A Fun Yet Practical Bobber
A Fun Yet Practical Bobber
  • The Jawa 42 Bobber is a beautiful looking 400cc bobber that enjoys a unique positioning in the Indian market as the only bobber in that segment. It offers punchy performance and everyday rideability at the same time.

Design

Eye Candy
Eye Candy
  • The true-blue bobber styling makes it standout on the road
  • The single-piece seat along with the tyre hugging fender makes it one of the segment’s most unique bikes
  • The Black Mirror colour scheme with the chrome fuel tank and blacked-out finish makes the bike look quite stunning

Performance & Mileage

Punchy Performance
Punchy Performance
  • 334cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine offers smooth and refined performance
  • The engine has a peaky nature to it and offers quick acceleration
  • Good performance at higher speeds and higher revs; overtaking at highways is a breeze
  • We got a decent 30.56kmpl mileage figure in the city during our road tests
  • Engine’s peaky nature translates to frequent gear changes in the city
  • Gearbox feels quite clunky, negating some of the smooth experiences offered by the engine
  • Vibrations can be felt at the handlebar, footpegs and fuel tank post the 100kmph mark

Handling

Agile Handler
Agile Handler
  • Bike feels agile and tips into corners easily
  • It is easy to manoeuvre the bike in city traffic conditions
  • The brakes offer good stopping power and the levers offer good feedback as well

Ride Quality

Between Good and Plush
Between Good and Plush
  • The suspension absorbs bumps and potholes quite well most of the time
  • At high speeds and after long hours on the saddle, road imperfections can be felt on the rider’s backside

Comfort & Storage

Adequately Comfy
Adequately Comfy
  • The upright riding posture leads to a comfortable riding experience
  • The seat is well cushioned, which is a boon during those weekend rides
  • The leg position is slightly weird and makes it awkward to grip the tank

Features

Build Quality Left To Be Desired
Build Quality Left To Be Desired
  • The features list with the LCD instrument console is decent for a retro style bobber
  • The USB charging port is a handy feature
  • The readability of the console under harsh sunlight needed to be better
  • The fit and finish levels of the console also could have been better

Verdict

Should you buy the Jawa 42 Bobber?
Should you buy the Jawa 42 Bobber?

I own mystic copper colour. There were many option but this colour was kind of different and also looked rich and yes its way batter than other colours. The riding experience is amazing also the bike performance is next level, much better than bullet. Its a eye catching bike, people will turn and look the bike. Most of them are concern with mileage so to be real it completely depends on your riding style. To me it has given 28kmpl and 14-17 kmpl also. But to be honest having this performance average doesn't matter.
