User Reviews of 42 Bobber

4 Rating

Easy To Live With Every Day

The 30 kmpl mileage is decent for the way the Jawa 42 Bobber looks and feels. I can use it for regular rides without worrying too much about fuel. The digital speedometer also keeps things simple while riding. It gives the bike a modern touch without taking away from its old school styling. I enjoy the fact that the Bobber feels special even during a normal ride around town.
