Jawa 42 and Yezdi Roadster get new colour options, prices start at ₹1.95 lakh

Jawa Yezdi Motorcycles has announced new colour options for its two popular selling models - Jawa 42 Sports Stripe and the Yezdi Roadster. The Jawa 42 Sports Stripe will now be available in the new metallic Cosmic Carbon shade and is priced at ₹1.95 lakh, while the Yezdi Roadster gets a new Crimson dual-tone shade with a gloss finish and is priced at ₹2.04 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

Jawa says the new 42 Sports Stripe Cosmic Carbon gets a carbon fibre finish that takes inspiration from the “source of life" and showcases carbon’s duality of complexity hidden in simplicity. On the other hand, the dual-tone Yezdi Roadster Crimson brings a white and crimson red paint scheme that elevates the styling on the motorcycle.

Speaking about the new colour options, Ashish Singh Joshi, CEO - Jawa Yezdi Motorcycles, said, “These two new colours usher in an even more exciting phase for both Jawa and Yezdi brands. This financial year was full of interesting milestones - be it introducing the all-new Yezdi range in the Indian market, unleashing the motorcycles in the varied terrains through our marquee rides or increasing our dealership footprint at a pace never seen before in the industry. This is just the beginning, and we are charged up to add more thrills and exhilaration to the Jawa & Yezdi product range in the coming year."

The Yezdi Roadster is now finished in Crimson Red with a white shade and gets a nice dual-tone finish

Power on the Jawa 42 2.1 comes from the same 294.72 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine tuned for 27 bhp and 26.84 Nm of peak torque. The motor is paired with a 6-speed transmission. Meanwhile, the Yezdi Roadster gets the 334 cc single-cylinder motor tuned for 29 bhp and 28.95 Nm of peak torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox and an assist and slipper clutch.
