Jawa Motorcycles is known for its retro-style cruisers that offer a relaxed and customized riding experience. Its latest model takes all the customized vibes to a new level, as it features characteristics more commonly found in custom models. It’s called Jawa 42 Bobber Black Mirror and, as you may have guessed, it has many chrome details.
To start, the new 42 Bobber Black Mirror features a chrome fuel tank, giving the bike a sleek and refined look that contrasts perfectly with its bold and retro overall design. It also has two-tone alloy wheels with diamond cut and tubeless tires. The crankcase and engine covers have been redesigned, with a stylish black finish and faux cooling fins on the cylinder head. Meanwhile, the side panel has a black finish and displays the “42 Bobber” symbol.
In addition to these improvements, Jawa Motorcycles introduced some mechanical enhancements to the motorcycle. Specifically, they increased the throttle body size from 33 millimeters to an additional 38 millimeters. Furthermore, they lowered the idle RPM from 1,500 rpm to a smoother 1,350 rpm, and made changes to the fuel map for optimal performance. To ensure a more comfortable ride, the rear mono-shock absorber was finely tuned.
Regarding technology, the engine of the 42 Bobber Black Mirror remains consistent with the standard Bobber. It is equipped with a liquid-cooled 334 cc single-cylinder fuel-injected engine, delivering 29 hp of maximum power and a peak torque of 32.7 Nm. This power is efficiently transferred to the rear wheel through a six-speed manual gearbox, now equipped with a convenient slipper clutch.
