Pros Cons of JAWA Forty Two

Pros

  • Refined performance
  • Comfortable riding position
  • Sorted ride and handling

Cons

  • Low ground clearance
  • Low cornering clearance
  • Welding quality not up to the mark

Verdict

The Jawa Forty-Two 2.1 certainly makes for a more appealing package, particularly with the new updates, which are not just skin deep. The tubeless tyres will offer peace of mind to riders, the seat will offer a more comfortable perch, the exhaust note has become throatier, and the ride quality is supple, and firm.Overall, the new Jawa 42 is a nicely put together bike, except for cornering clearance, and a few glaring welds on the frame and on the back of the forks.

Pros Cons Indian Roadmaster

Pros

  • Refined and torquey performance
  • Loaded with features
  • Comfortable ride

Cons

  • Engine heat
  • Manoeverability in traffic
  • Lack of reverse gear

Verdict

Impeccable! The bigger a motorcycle, more the number of parts. And in case of the Roadmaster, it has a fairing, panniers, panels etc. but no rattle at all. Overall, the urban jungle is not the environs where the Roadmaster will thrive. It is best ridden on long, smooth stretches of tarmac. Though we have to say that there are few cruisers or tourers which can match the comfort and elegance of the way the Roadmaster goes about.
