Jawa 350

The Jawa 350, a classic cruiser bike, pays homage to its iconic predecessor from the ’70s while incorporating modern features and technology. With its authentic Jawa styling, the motorcycle stands out with a design reminiscent of the original, complete with vintage-style fenders, a dome-shaped headlamp extending to cover the front forks, and a horn positioned uniquely between the front fork and the fuel filler cap.

Under the hood, the Jawa 350 is powered by a robust 334cc liquid-cooled DOHC single-cylinder engine, generating a commendable 22.26 bhp of power and 28.1 Nm of torque. The engine is mated to a smooth 6-speed gearbox with a slip-and-assist clutch, offering riders a delightful and responsive performance.

The suspension setup comprises a 35mm telescopic fork at the front and gas-charged shock absorbers at the rear, with 5-step preload adjustable twin shocks. Braking duties are handled by a front disc brake, paired with either a rear drum or disc unit, providing effective stopping power. The bike rides on MRF Nylogrip tyres, with an 18-inch wheel at the front and a 17-inch wheel at the rear.

Weighing in at 194 kg, the Jawa 350 is well-balanced and easy to handle, making it accessible for riders of varying experience levels. The compact package of the bike contributes to its ease of maneuverability.

Despite its impressive performance and authentic styling, there are some aspects that could be improved. The small and narrow seat may not provide the most comfortable experience for riders, and the Spartan instrument console lacks some modern features. Additionally, there are concerns about the overall quality of certain components.

The Jawa 350 comes equipped with features like self-start, dual-channel ABS, spoke wheels, low fuel warning lamp, analogue speedometer, tube-type tyres, analogue trip meter, and a pass switch, enhancing the overall riding experience.
