More about modification

What is a scrambler? A scrambler is an old term for dirt bikes up to 650cc that raced on off-road tracks with low jumps and obstacles. Jawa motorcycles were re-launched in the Indian market a few years ago. Just like the older Jawa, the new one also became popular and these motorcycles have a long waiting period.

Jawa initially had launched Jawa Classic and Jawa 42 and later launched a factory custom bobber Jawa Perak. Starting with the olive green Jawa 42, it gets an alloy wheel. The front forks now have more travel than the stock version. Moving up, the stock headlight has been replaced with an aftermarket projector unit with an LED DRL ring in it.

The instrument cluster has also been aligned to the centre of the handlebar. The owner has also modified the handlebar of the Jawa to give it a more upright stance. A custom made radiator grille takes care of the engine’s safety. The other Jawa 42 in the video retains the spoke wheels but gets off-road tyres and has the stock handlebar as well. Apart from that, both motorcycles have similar modifications done to them.
