Insightful.
One wrong info though, Jawa is available in dual channel abs too.
Jawa Classic lu ya 42... m confused...
Now it is, earlier it wasn’t
Dev..bhaii
wow! then thats great, im slowing falling in love with jawa bikes. hows the service?
I like jawa
Low hight
Good pickup
Retro look
Less vibration
Two silencers
Taklya😂😂😂😂
Light weight
@@saishhkharkar4414 haaa
Re should spend more money on r&d of their single cylinder engines instead of colour updates
True
Correct
Exactly...kya vibration deti hai gaafi waah🙏🙏 maja aajata hai matlab kha pi ke baitho to pach jaega ...kuch karo RE valo... Agar ye engine thik nhi kiya to RE ka future pata nhi kya hai....I own bullet but those vibrations man...at some time you feel so fed up..aur kab gadi ko kya ho jaeg ye to khud bullet manufacturer tak nhi bata sakte..
RE ka time hogya Bhai log. Sales already slow down hochuka hai. RE ki company me bhi huge slow down hochuka hai.
@@babayaga9805 😂😂😂😂
Jawa42 is best.. The major problem is after sale service and its availability
Either they do not have capacity to increase scale of production or not responsive to consumer need. 8 months is too long , even though it may b a legend ! After sales and spare part availability is going to come out as another surprise !
When I booked classic 350 in 2011 it took 9 months for delivery. Now Jawa is 3 months.
@@rajkschwartz bhai kuc smjh nhi ata java walo ka. Itni booking nhi aati jitni .. ye bnane m time lga dete h ...at least time p products dedo. Itni to sale nhi java ki . Jitna ye time le lete h .. kisi ko leni ho urgent to bta dena. .. showroom se jldi hi available krwa duga bhai. Wait nhi krna pdega
Jawa is also good. Or muze bhi jawa pasand aai but RE TB is best for me because of its riding posher, comfortable and wide seats and awesome looks, informative consol,projector headlight, alloy wheels,and most important tubeless tyres. That why i choose TB 350 X
You must like vibrators
No l like features & looks
@@adityasolanke2434 it doesn't vibrate that much u take a test drive bhai.u would like it.jawa also has vibration in high speeds.i liked the styling and technology but when it comes to riding the posture is important for long driving .
How. About riding re in rain. . I heard all the dirt from front and back mudguard comes to the drivers legs and back. .😣
@@muhammedjabir5589 front mudguard u can have extender it costs around 200rs.rear i had no problem till now if u want u can have guard extender for rear to that is also around 150rs
i hve thunderbird 350x ......and i am loving it
Meeee tooo sir...
How's the rear brake? Does it lose braking power when it gets heated?
@@KOhcl no, sir.. i didn't met such an eexperience
How is this for pillion rider comfort?
@@jaseemnaje sir, definitely need back rest for pillion rider
Jawa 42 is a better option. However can we modify old jawa 250cc bike like new jawa 300cc standard. Please🙏 comment.
Why jawa 42 providing tubed tyres, why not tubeless?
Wonderful comparison dude! Correctly mentioned, Royal Enfield took advantage of the people all these years and never bothered to work on its flaws.... JAWA took advantage of the gap and positioned their bikes perfectly.
Jawa is the Bawa of RE
Of course I would go with jawa 42 after seeing the comparison. Thanks for the illustrations.
Well I have been riding for long, started with the old bullet, then classic and now last year Thunderbird X, but recently i took a test ride of Jawa, and I'm sure my next bike is jawa period. Let's keep ego and emotions aside and talk sence, more reliable bike in less price, who dont want that. If you are a blind follower then it's a different thing, but if you talk about value for money java is the pick for me.
but what about : tube tyres, spokes, no black color, instrument cluster very basic. the only reason to go for jawa 42 would be i think Engine.
G works you should ride jawa and re back to back
@@gworks7RE is never ment for alloys, put alloys on your RE and go for a ladakh trip, it will crack. My front tyre has a tube in it, though it is tube less. This happened because the body is heavy and alloy provided by RE for Thunderbird X are not that strong. And i think RE knows this thing that's why RE interceptor is also coming with spokes rather than alloy.
@@gworks7 and after 2 weeks you wont bother about the instrument cluster, but even after two years you will be bothered about the engine performance.
@@gworks7 and even Thunderbird X don't have black colour be it 350 or 500. However 500's colour looks little funny too me that's why I opted for 350 white. If jawa would have been available at that time, my pick would be java.
Though I am not a Royal Enfield hater but I will go for Jawa 42 because it looks more stylish and is smooth on riding.
@@ghumakkadpratap Jawa is also indian.
@@ghumakkadpratap, RE is as Indian as the Gandhi family.
@@TirthBArya And as low quality as Feku.
So all that patriotic.indians here, plz not.ther is nothing indian today from Ur toothpaste to your cars and the dress u wear ! Have clarity
I have bajaj pulsar 150
Jawa is the true winner. I'm not disrespecting Thunderbird but guys we should look at the specs and the over all performance of both of the bikes. Moreover jawa is just 293cc and producing 27 BHP and Thunderbird has 346cc I'm not sure exactly and it producing just 19.5 BHP? How jawa is doing that much better than Thunderbird and one more major thing about jawa is that this has BS6 engine. So in my point of view Jawa is the true value of money and winner. Nice review 👌👍
Jawa milage????????
@@mohamedimthiyas8920
Almost around 35 Kmpl...
@@ArvindKumar-yj7sq ok thx
Jawa 42 is better option as it looks good, powerful engine & jawa produce better bikes than royal Enfield
brain says jawa for tech and freshness , heart says RE for looks. Guess sometimes good looking vibrators are lovable by everyone xd
Sir what about the after sale service cost? I think Jawa is more expensive, what your opinion?
Thanks for this review for both bikes, was waiting to see this. I have already book Jawa 42 and I am glad that i chose Jawa 42 against RE TB. Made me feel good.
Do we want to Use Anti Rust in Mansoon for Jawa?
I plan to buy jawa. It looks retro, sounds refined, has more power and for me, there aren't many Jawa around.
Bro need your advice .. Please reply
Ground clearance issue in single seat also ?? I am 120 Kg was thinking of jawa classic .. mostly single seat riding but occasionally with pillion ... please suggest
I have purchased 350x because of seating posture, height and suspension. I have lower back pain hence I prefer the 350x and I am very satisfied with it comfort. 2 more addition things for350 is - alloy wheel and tube less tyre.
My bro has JAWA42. The look, engine performance of JAWA 42?is good but seating posture and suspension is not much good. we have notice the ground clearance issue when 2 adult seat on Jawa. Else it is very nice, chrome shine bike.
Excellent and genuine comparison Sharmaji.
Thanks sir. I have driven avenger 160 and looking for a bike having good look and more height than avenger and useful in long distance riding. It's jawa 42.
Mujhe jawa bike leni hai isme alage se set laga sakty hai par set choti hai
@gearflicks please let us now if it is the right time to get Jawa42 owning to doubts wrt its after sales services, fact being a new product with Mojo's heart. Electricals, ultra firm seat, corroding wielding ends n minimalistic intru pan are other concerns.
Can u provide a comparison between classic 350 signals edition and jawa 42
Java ka 28 nm torque kitne rpm par hai.
I am RE classic 350 owner from last 4 years now and have driven jawa all variants. I would love to go for jawa as they have better handling machines, breaks are superb, no vibration on high speeds wherein you will feel it the most even at the speed of 80 in RE.
How about service cost and which company's service is better...
Which is better jawa 42 or Thunderbird 350x or classic 350... Plz reply
Jawa 42 because of it's class and looks
True and descent review by you...By the way both bikes are stunning and solid but Jawa is more better bike for refinement and performance.....I would like to buy JAWA 42 👍👍👍
ThanQ you Manoj!
Keep watching our channel and also share the videos with your friends.
Will go with jawa, no nonsense, less vibration. Extra padding on seats will work for long ride I think. Kudos to the gear fliq team
ThanQs for the appreciation Varun :)

I also love jawa but tube tyres 😥😥

Very detailed analysis and honest comparison. Narendra sir u rock!
Which colour is best of java... Suggest me plss
Bhai kindly suggests me which bike is better Bangalore city because I'm pharmaceutical professionals but I don't like 150cc
I think RAJDOOT should also make its comeback with 350 & 500 Cc bikes because nowadays middle class is more attracting towards mid & heavy size bike like RE & Jawa so this is the perfect time for ESCART company to relaunch thier legendary bike brand RAJDOOT
Very well presented. A very factual and unbiased analysis. Really liked the video. Thsnk you for making it and sharing it.
I liked the Jawa. Was present at the Launch on 15 Nov last year.
I have the old Jawa from 1962, Yezdi 350 twin and Yezdi 175 too.
You have lovely possessions 😊
@@GearFliQ have 1983 RD350 HT, 1979 RD350 import, 1986 RX100 & RXZ 5s too.
@@GearFliQ ruclips.net/video/XwoUR_hLiYE/видео.html
That's me
Jawa 42!! Because it has twin exhaust, more pickup and six gear box!!🔥😍
Old is always GOLD😎. Old jawa was start by kick, fuel consumption was very low comparison to the new one. New jawa fuel consumption is very high.
If you don't know then I will tell you that fuel efficiency of this byke is 25kmph within 1st year but no beyond 30kmph which is equivalent to 4 wheeler cars.
Sir .Thunderbird x comes with kick and self both and jawa comes with only self start
@Aniket Surwade yeah they are advanced but when battery breaks or the battery power is less than you need to use the kick only technology may be developed too much but when some time any thing goes wrong or not working we need to use the old style . 'RE THE BEST FOREVER AND JAWA
No high quality or expensive bike has kick start but only self start 👍🏻🤦🏻♂️
It's a BS6 standard engine , that's why !!
Thunderbird x 350 comes with carburettor n jawa comes with fulel injection , thunderbirdx 500 also comes with fulel injection
So what? My bolero also comes with self-start only and unfortunately there is no kick-start version available either.
Durability and reliability vise which one is more dependable dude out of two dear??
Oviosly jawa 42 bro...very premium quality n almost no vibration
I have 350 classic and test drive Jawa last Sunday for my younger brother , he’s saying for thunderbird 350x but I forced him to test drive jawa , first of all hospitality of Jawa showrooms are superb and after riding Jawa we thought that Enfields are using very old technologies ( vibrations in bikes, pickups) jawa is superb in pickups and there was no vibration at the speed of 60. On road price of jawa forty two is 2 lacs but they asked us to wait for approx 7 months for a bike . I asked them to give in max 1 or 2 months .they said they can give by feb if we want , he can’t wait for 4-5 months so we are discussing which to buy due to time issue, Jawa is superb , this guy exactly saying each word correct about bike . Superb knowledge 👍
2 lacs is more costly 🙄😞
Thank you Gearfliq. This was much needed comparison video. I might gift one of them to myself on my birthday this year, so thanks for making my decision easier!! 😊
We are glad you found the video useful, Abhijit!
Do share it with your friends and let us know which bike you gifted yourself :)
Brother, we don't know which one is your choice n when's the big day. But would suggest keep the waiting period in mind 😉
And do share this video with others who might still be confused.
ThanQs for watching. Best wishes in advance from all of us here 👍
Team GearFliQ
Can we install tubeless tyres in jawa ??
Not unless you change the rims
Java 42 is for average height ppl, not comfortable for tall ppl
Yes, you are right.
I was actually planning to buy this bike that one factor made me think otherwise
Wrong ,,my friend of 6"1 comfortably rides it
Sabke liye shi h bhai...
Vibration
Torque
Retro look
Dual abs
zig zag ride
Which is best?
Very good comparison, thumbs up to Java 42👍👍👍.
Hi....... Mai bike lover hu... Mere pas fiero 150, KB 100, FZ 16, splendor old thi(my first own bike), classic 350 thi..... Par meri body bulki hai.... Akhada me jata hu isss liye (bulki + bulki= bull) is liye sab haste the😀😀😀😀 ... Maine Jawa 42 n Thunderbird 350x chalai hai.... Par jawa ka handle kafi confort hai 350x se.... Maine meteor book ki hai, handle change karunga.... Meteor ko jawa ka handle lagaunga..... Kya sahi rahega? Plz muze bataye
Jawa is best butt that bike service center and spare parts Is available? Reply please I thinking to buy help me if u free
What is the waiting period for Jawa? Have you tried the bike as a pillion?
I always love Thunderbird 350x ❤️ RE always ❤️
May be Jawa42 is best in all mean after i gone through test ride of 42. But RE is love.....RE is a feeling....which in heart😘
My choice is re. Thunderbirdx becouse this bike look like retro n medern perfect combination
Jawa is the best , but only problem is that they are not delivering soon, 4-5 months waiting
I have a question.. if I book a Jawa now and it is delivered after April 2020 will it not have to be BS6 complaint then?
It's already BS6 compliant
U are lucky if it is 4-5 months , in Chennai they talk about 7 months ! Not good
@@rajkschwartz 7 months is like forever
Here 8-9 months waiting
यदि जावा की बाइक ली जाए तो इसका service benifit kya मिलेगा और रोयल एनफील्ड के मुकाबले कितना बेटर रिजल्ट होगा बताएं
Pahle starter kick paltane par gear ban jate the.lnko fasne ka problem thi.lske bare me koi nahi batate hai. Please is topic ko clear kare.
Fabulous comparison with review.
Keep it up.
Jawa 42 better for me because look so nice and stylish bike too... I'm a young boy and love retro bikes so jawa 42 is suitable bike for me in many ways.
should i wait for BS 6 engine( a bit expansive)
or
should i buy bike now
( probably they gonna price it down in festive seasons) ????
Overall Jawa is the clear winner..
I will buy Thunderbird because I just love it
Jawa 42 me jo self ki problim ati hai kya wo sach hai ?? muje laini hai
The best review i've seen till now....great work bro...i subscribed❤
ThanQ You Arif Bhai!!
Please spread the word and share our videos. Keep supporting us 🙏
Thunderbird 350 twin spark 2010 gives about 48km on highway 70 to 85kmph. City 35 to 38 km. If you accelerate smoothly then your bike will give very good average. I can get 55kmpl if I drive very smoothly using power fuel. Use petrol additive and oil additive. Put 5ml petrol additive on full tank each time!! Shift gears around 2250 rpm!!
m fan ho gya white color Thunderbird x ka
Bhg chutiya
Fair review..java is better..will go for java
What about Service Cost, annual maintenance & service cost?
Sir apke shoes kis company ke hai please.....
*Thunderbird 350x ki look best hai aur RE ki branding bhi bahut upper hai jawa se* , *nice video bro*
Thunderbird 350x is a new age RE and certainly looks stunning also. Jawa ko tough takkar hai 😉
Osm video sir really JAWA 42 is the best bike
I have RE Electra and waiting for Perak
Jawa 42😍
Sir, which one is better for highway long rides? You missed this aspect ...
Jawa is more capable, but Thunderbird has more seating comfort, if you can live with the vibrations.
@@GearFliQ Thank You ..
Sir interceptor 650 vs gt650 k bare me batao na dono me kya fark h koinsi best h ridding style and comfort aadi k bare me
When can we expect delivery of Jawa 42 as currently it is out of stock everywhere
Jawa is in classical structure as comparison to Thunderbird X
You are rocking 😎 bro..
I like jawa but have doubts about maintenance facility and maintenance costing!
ThanQs Naveen. Maintainence cost wouldn't be a problem, however, Jawa needs to grow their network, which eventually will increase.
@@GearFliQ thanks bro.
I will have to think about it once again. ;)
Wow!! You listen about your viewers and subscribers thoughts and you did your review😃👍👍.......and don't forget to do a mileage test of Jawa.....😁😁As always........#GearFliQ
ThanQs Brave Rider! It's the love and support of our viewers, like you, which keeps us going.
Will keep your suggestion in mind. Stay tuned :)
That's why I booked jawa42 .... It's a good bike .....And I'm also going to buy RE continental gt 650 next year .....I love both JAWA and RE
Wow! You're a full on biker bro. Best wishes for your new set of wheels. Have fun n ride safe 👍
Team GearFliQ
@@GearFliQ Thank you bro...
Sir.... My requirement is long drive. Around 300 km.... it's from my work place to native.... From this vdo I can understand that Thunderbird 350X is better for long drive.... Hence, Plz suggest Thunderbird 350 or Thunderbird 350X
Thunderbird will suit you better bro.
Thunderbird is best for ladakh riding
Iam 6”1 tall.
So will Jawa be less comfortable for me in comparison to TB?
Yes. TB shall be more comfortable to sit on
I have rode a Yezdi for years and that too with pillions. My height too is 6 ft. No problemo
will go Thunderbird 350x
Java ka tyre tubless alg se lga skte h reply
Tubeless isme nahin lagega. Kyonki spokes waale wheels hain.
Obviously JAWA due to its refined engine with new technology, good riding posture, twin exhaust, mileage, price etc.Bro I love to watch your blog.Keep it up.
ThanQ bro. Keep supporting us and driving us to work harder :)
I want to buy Jawa forty two. Which colour is more attractive. Please advise.
Nebula blue is the one I booked bro , really attractive , Matt green is also good
jawa is best but in westbengal if we plan to buy jawa then for each and every servicing we need to go 400+ km availability problem......
What is the engine type in both? BS IV or BS VI?
