Jawa Motorcycles has revved up its bobber lineup for 2024, bringing exciting updates to both the Jawa Perak and the Jawa 42 Bobber. Let’s take a closer look at what’s new!
Jawa Perak Gets New Dual-Tone Variant, Retains Existing Price
The classic Jawa Perak gets a stylish upgrade with a new matte Black/matte Grey dual-tone variant. This variant boasts a heritage-inspired look with brass tank badging and a quilted tan seat. For improved comfort and handling, the Perak now features repositioned footpegs (moved forward 155mm) and a retuned monoshock for better damping.
While the engine retains its 334cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder format, it now produces 29.9PS and 30Nm, a slight decrease compared to the previous model. Despite this, the Perak remains a powerful and characterful machine.

Jawa Perak and 42 Bobber Remain Undisputed Bobber Kings
