Jawa 350 Brochure

The Jawa 350 has its charm, but it’s not without flaws. While it excels in build quality, paint finish, and overall aesthetics, I encountered a few functional drawbacks. The mid-range performance is strong, but it cuts out when throttled aggressively. Additionally, the analog instruments, though nostalgic, are poorly positioned, making visibility a challenge. Jawa has made progress, but there’s room for improvement in functionality.

After riding the Jawa 350 for a week, I’m impressed by its versatility. The assist-and-slipper clutch makes gear shifts effortless, and the bike handles beautifully on both smooth highways and light off-road trails. The revamped seat and higher ground clearance ensure a comfortable experience, even during longer rides. It’s not just a motorcycle—it’s a statement for those who value timeless style with updated engineering.

Unfortunately, the Jawa 350 hasn’t lived up to my expectations. While it looks stunning and has great low-end torque, the ride isn’t as smooth as I hoped. The engine vibrates noticeably at higher revs, and the rear suspension feels stiff on bad roads. Additionally, the brakes are good up front but could be better at the rear. Jawa needs to address these issues if they want to compete with Royal Enfield.
