Jawa Perak: Top 5 Reasons To Buy

Introduced by Classic Legends, the Perak is the most affordable way to bring home a Bobber-style motorcycles. But there are more reasons to buy the Jawa Perak, and here we tell you five that make the motorcycle very desirable.

Design

The Jawa Perak features a unique, Bobber motorcycle-style design. The Perak is not based on the Jawa Classic or the Forty-Two. Instead, it uses a new frame and swingarm. The rider-only saddle, which features a tan-brown seat cover, is fixed to the main frame which gives it a floating design. The LED taillight is installed under the rider seat while the rear turn indicators are installed on the rear fender.

Other styling features include a round halogen headlight, a semi-digital instrument cluster, bar-end mirrors, a 14-litre fuel tank, and a twin-sided slash-cut exhaust setup. Further enhancing the styling is the dark theme along with contrasting gold accents and pinstripes that are visible on the fuel-tank, fenders, and the side panels.

While the design is very appealing, the Perak cannot be the only motorcycle in your garage. It does not have the option to add a pillion seat setup, which can be a deal-breaker for some buyers. Moreover, unlike the Jawa Classic and the Forty-Two, the Perak does not get alloy wheels, and the Bobber-style motorcycle uses tube-type tyres that are wrapped in blacked-out wire-spoke wheels. We could see alloy wheels on the Perak in the future, but there’s no official timeline available yet.

Performance

The Perak is also the highest-performance model in Jawa’s India range. The 334cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine makes 30bhp and 32.74Nm of peak torque. The power and torque numbers are 4bhp and 4.2Nm more than its siblings – the Classic and the Forty-Two. The motor is linked to a six-speed gearbox.

The higher power and torque output numbers deliver an increased grunt in the low and mid-range. The refinement levels, however, aren’t the best in the segment, and there’s a slight buzz of vibrations on the handlebar, especially near the top-end.

Light and Agile

The Jawa Perak tips the weighing scale at 175kg, which makes it fairly lightweight. The motorcycle also feels quite agile when moving through traffic. It wouldn’t disappoint on twisty roads either, although a low ground clearance means that the exhaust pipes would end up scraping too soon. You would also have to be extra careful while going over speedbreakers.

Jawa Perak Rider Seat

Low Seat Height

The Perak is an ideal motorcycle for shorter than average riders as the seat height is just 750mm high, thus making the ground easily accessible. On the downside, it would feel cramped for taller riders.

Unique Positioning

The Jawa Perak enjoys a unique position in the Indian market. The bobber-inspired styling is unlike any other motorcycle in the sub-Rs two lakh price bracket, and it will definitely grab attention wherever it goes.

Should you buy it?

The Jawa Perak is a perfect choice for anyone who is looking for an appealing motorcycle. Apart from looking stylish, the Perak also packs decent power and torque output which makes it a fun-to-ride motorcycle while the low seat height makes it easily accessible even for shorter riders. The only reason to avoid it is the lack of practicality aspect due to the missing pillion seat setup.
