Jawa BS6 changes include better braking, more cushioned seat, engine updates and more. Test rides are also now available…
Mahindra owned ‘Classic Legends Pvt. Ltd.’ – the company that manufactures Jawa branded bikes, has announced that it has commenced delivering the BS6 compliant versions of both Jawa and Jawa Forty Two motorcycles across the country.
The bikes are also available for test-rides and bookings across all its dealerships for people who want to feel the classics before buying.
Jawa BS6 Changes
Jawa and the Forty Two – both the motorcycles continue to deploy the same single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, DOHC, 293 cc engine, but it has now been updated with BS6 compliance. It now produces 26.51 PS of power (0.86 PS down) and 27.05 Nm of torque (down by 0.95 Nm).
The engine now features India’s first cross-port technology that increases the volumetric efficiency of the engine, by enabling better flow of air-fuel mixture and exhaust gases. The company claims that this engine is the only single-cylinder engine in the world, that uses cross-port technology, and it helps the bikes in retaining their signature twin-exhaust identity while meeting the BS6 compliance norms.
