The Argentine motorcycle market is experiencing a boom, driven by demand for accessible mobility and lower operating costs. In this dynamic environment, the historic brand Jawa is making a significant comeback, introducing a refreshed lineup of its 350cc models.
The brand has launched two distinct versions: the Jawa 350 Classic and the Jawa 350 Adventure. The Classic model pays homage to Jawa's heritage with its retro aesthetics, complete with chrome accents and a design reminiscent of its iconic predecessors. Beneath its vintage exterior lies a modern 334cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine with electronic fuel injection, producing 22.26 horsepower and 28.1 Nm of torque, paired with a six-speed manual transmission.
Key features of the Classic include liquid cooling, an assist-and-slipper clutch, and a digital instrument cluster that maintains a classic look. For safety, it is equipped with dual-channel ABS on both front and rear disc brakes. The bike has a seat height of 740 mm, weighs 185 kg, and features a 12.5-liter fuel tank. Suspension duties are handled by 35 mm telescopic forks at the front and dual hydraulic shock absorbers with nitrogen and five-position preload adjustment at the rear.
The Jawa 350 Adventure is tailored for riders seeking long-distance travel and off-road excursions. It shares the 334cc liquid-cooled engine but with an enhanced tune, boosting power to 29.19 horsepower and 29.6 Nm of torque. This version also includes traction control, distinguishing it from the Classic model and emphasizing its capability for diverse terrains.
