Classic Legends revived the defunct Jawa brand, which offers the modern classic taste to its motorcycles and gets a modern-day liquid-cooled, fuel-injected engine. The motorcycle also comes with modern suspension, chassis and brakes, completing the package.
Jawa Classic and Jawa Forty Two – Engine Specifications
Powering the Jawa Classic and Jawa Forty Two is a 293cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine. The engine comes with electronic fuel injection and cross-port technology. The brand claims that the modern engine is the first single-cylinder motor to utilize cross-port technology. The motor produces linear performance across the entire rev range in addition to the punchier mid revs.
