Hello All,Good Day!I bid

Hello all, Good day! i bid adieu to my jawa 42 bike last night, I had mixed opinions about 4, 5 years of ownership.The engine was good while on long drives and vibrations were fairly better when compared to 2019 re.Yes, At a moderate speed range of 80km to 100 km/hr.Style and looks were good, With a retro feel to the design and some nostalgic feel also.In my present situation, I rushed to purchase this beast very early and had to pay huge over to quality in manufacturing and materials used.Some of these user issues were the real reason to sell this out.1.Speedo meter - the offset design was good but the fuel gauge was never accurate.Missed out trip meter and some major concern to speedo meter mounting which slowly developed cracks and bound to fracture soon.2.Fuel pump/ lambda sensor- issue while running and suddenly stopped on the go, Self start was not responding despite having 75% fuel all this within 2 months of owning.3.The seat was not padded sufficiently and had to consider aftermarket additions that mostly looked very horrible.4.Headlights were not sufficient light throw while in dark areas and adding additional light fixtures was no option because of the excessive load on the battery which will reflect issues over self-start.5.No tubeless tiers- the bike was too bulky to handle in case of punchers and hardly could move at times.Poor service experience at showrooms.6.Rusting, A big factor to decide! the very next day of owning the bike i noticed the fuel tank was seen with air bubbles and paint issues which the company replaced with a new tank under warranty.The handlebar was bent and was not in line and was replaced under warranty (stored in bad order at the warehouse probably), The cone rubber was missing under the fork.The service person had missed adding a chain lock while on maintenance and the bike broke down while running, Both i and my wife were fortunate not to be at high speed or on the high way which otherwise needs no explanation.The silencer started to rust within one year of usage, Located in bengaluru and seeing this silencer rusting was a weird feeling, There are bikes on the road eg.Yamaha rx 100 over 20+ years and have no concerns about rusting.The replacement cost of new silencers was another 15k!the resale value out in the market is very bad and i sold this bike for a very low cost.I hold the vendors responsible and also jawa who have delivered bikes and substandard spare parts.On the whole, While i look back and around now the new jawa bike or for other make, I feel like a father to a premature baby!thank you.

Claimed mileage

It looks outstanding and is a very modern bike.It gives good performance but has small and narrow seat.It has six speed manual transmission system, Overall quality is good.
