Jawa Perak review - Table for one | First Ride | Autocar India

With its single seat bobber design, the Jawa Perak sure is a break from the norm. But how does it fit into the India scheme of things? Rishaad Mody goes on a lone ride to get the answer.

[@abhigyanbg5764]

This bike is made for mechanical engineers.

[@kashishwadhawan6193]

Buying a Perak is a decision to be made from heart rather than mind

[@Prasaddongare]

Buyer must be a "forever single" 😂😜

[@sharankulkarni1727]

Saw actually 3 of these bikes near my home... And I am jealous of those guys who own it

[@abhishekdhibar9641]

Perak owner here. Totally in love with the bike. And we can get the side stand sensor installed from service centre for 500 bucks.

[@supernpstr]

They should have moved the break and gear pegs to the front. That would have made the driving position slightly bearable.

[@saumya_42]

Looks extremely uncomfortable for tall bikers

[@rajmhapuskar9770]

Rishaad has a fanbase of his own now. 🤯
Great review.

[@ravirajyaguru5905]

This is like buying a 2 door Coupé for a family of 6. Doesn’t work for a country like India. But do I want it? YES!

[@nirav_khanna]

The bike's cons overweigh the pro's. Short riders would love it though I feel,
Great review nevertheless.

[@ashokedits7252]

Autocar is the best in class in reviewing Cars and Bikes.

[@maxmavrick7]

It’s for those who wants this bike for its looks and looks alone. It’s a style statement. And I think most of the buyers have second motorcycle in their garage as a practical option.

[@Philippiuskottaram]

Great video.But we are waiting for the video of the Tata Safari 2021👍👍

[@HighwayToHill]

Great review! Too little to offer and too many compromises. But big props to Mahindra/Jawa for even making this bike others won't even dare. Unfortunately, that's all that is to talk ab't the Perak.

[@bhimeshjetty7092]

I don't see a good reason to buy it🤔

[@abdulrazakdhaga444]

Does this bobber seat helps in minimising shocks to lower back? compared to regular seat.
I have low back pain issue and i am planning to buy a bike for short commute to work.
Your kind advice will be highly appreciated
Thanks

[@Yathuprem]

what a review ! The autocar bike team is awesome.

[@anish4175]

This lowkey looks like the Bonneville Bobber 👀

[@ketanmathur2134]

Beautifully explained 👌

[@rahularavind5807]

Most favourite for solo riders..

[@SP-xd7fg]

It does not seem comfortable for tall riders above 6ft.

[@FETRND]

The foot position should be more in the front, the speedometer should not be too far

[@akashjadhav7174]

I'm thinking to buy it for my Dad, just one short query, is it suitable for a person with height 5ft6inch.... What's ur thoughts on it?

[@harikrishna-is1vt]

Please review the upcoming electric bikes too ! SVM Prana would be a good start !

[@xqzme9798]

for the Approved Singles 😂😜

[@meshreejaypatil5964]

I am confused in jawa perak, himalayan, dominar400, honda cb 350rs,mojo and benelli imperial400
Which one should i buy?

[@Torquebeast650]

I've only seen 2 or 3 jawas since they were again launched in market
don't know why so rare😅

[@akkuzachariahjacob2841]

Asking anyone who knows a thing or two.. preferably Rishad, is it possible to have a mod on the Perak - The footpegs.. is there any mechanical limitation to installing forward set ones.. just curious..

[@quicksmash]

It has the same problem of the 310RR despite being super good looking i.e. not having a compelling engine

[@JustCurioustoday]

boss even after everything this thing is gorgeous

[@ravishankarpoojary5899]

Finally 😅....Was waiting for Autocar revive of Jawa Perak

[@MrOnlymoin1]

mine is being delivered tomorrow. wont be sleeping tonight i guess.

[@ender___man8053]

Is it good for height of 6.2f people

[@sohamchaudhari835]

How tall are you?

[@salmannambola]

Waiting for SAFARI ❤️

[@abishek4300]

THIS BIKE IS FOR MEDIUM AND SHORT PEOPLE....

[@harisignalseditz1610]

*JAWA*
🛵 ❤️ 🛵
The indian vintage /classic

[@nd7883]

It is India. People will buy this and fit a pillion seat of their own....

[@adhhyirswamedutt1686]

Perfect bike for singles🔥🔥🔥

[@ck2u]

Niche product and there is a market for those who want to stand out. But the delivery issues of Jawa may ensure that seeing them on the roads will be difficult

[@karnbhardwaj]

Great review Rishaad! 👌🏽

[@arununnikrishnan3953]

Bike would be like a kid's cycle for a tall guy like me... Which feels like a little disproportionate. And well for this price, and as there is non to get one like this... It's a trade off.

[@Abhi_98]

Perfect bike for engineers 😂

[@d.k.entertainment7584]

This is not best for 1st time buyer this bike is for them who has a secondary bike in their garage

[@dipakkuchhadiya9333]

I like it 👌🏻

[@zugalmy]

Very low ground clearance...suit for plain highway

[@yashowardhanmutalik6961]

When Autocar says ‘NO’ it is ‘NO’

[@keshavbharati1998]

Please do a review on BS6 jawa 42 or classic bikes.

[@sohambaner777]

Remember, ninja h2 is also single seat 😉

[@kostinarain7373]

Very good looking

[@rituraj_sharma_v]

So basically any one who has a wife or a girlfriend is out of the equation straight away.

[@sumukhanlokesh1092]

Heyyy...first comment....love u Autocar India

[@pravinvinbros]

Jawa with MOJO engines, with a bit of tweaks to their engines.....

[@adityamahajan8410]

Best car at around 7-8 lakhs

[@SCHINMAYSHARMA]

🔥🔥🔥

[@studentsucesspoint]

Good bike

[@koshyabraham4275]

Perak

[@PK-lo6ws]

First.

[@jubairahmad3162]

Everything is good but i can't purchase because of single seater

[@sandeeppatil-ue8mv]

Seat height is very low..it looks cartoonish sitting on that bike

[@kapilkhade4423]

1st for the 1st time

[@striker13390]

Circus act

[@Curtisjackson501975]

I just feel the pain in my back and legs by seeing him ride.
Who would buy this bike?
Ans: Single Shorter person with money who wanted to have a different ride so that people everywhere will give a stare.

[@balavasanth5120]

Strictly no pavilion seat support, no indicators, no side stand, silencer doesn't noise like a bobber type
Not a complete indian bike

[@priyanshukhairwar4089]

Bacho ke bike ha jawa 😂😂 itna chota 😂😂

[@jobinjoy8260]

Not impressive at all

[@vb46]

Will not have many takers at the high price.

[@simransangha2887]

Not worth!

[@shanupotluri6997]

Conclusion: dont buy it
