KTM RC 125 vs JAWA Forty Two Comparison

The KTM RC 125 makes a very strong case as an entry-level sport bike. It's got the looks to make heads turn, great dynamics to make a young adult get comfortable with a sport bike. It excels in its styling, easy accessibility and, unintimidating performance, making it the perfect companion to make a statement in college. And after about a year's ownership of the RC 125, you could think of graduating to something with more performance, perhaps the KTM RC 200 or even the KTM RC 390.

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.
