It was in 1929 that František Janecek had laid
the foundation of Jawa Motorcycles in the erstwhile Czechoslovakia and
conceived the Jawa 500 OHV, the brand’s first motorcycle. The launch of the
anniversary edition is to mark the 90th anniversary of this
occasion.
Limited
to 90 units, the motorcycle will have a special 90th anniversary colour scheme
inspired by the Jawa 500OHV. The limited edition will be based on the Jawa dual
channel ABS variant. Every motorcycle will also feature a 90th Anniversary
commemorative emblem on the fuel tank along with its individual serial number.
Although
there is no change in price over the regular Jawa dual channel ABS motorcycle,
this limited edition that comes in a new shade of red and ivory, will be
available for immediate delivery. This limited-edition motorcycle will be
available on display at Jawa dealerships from October 15, 2019.
Customers
who hold an active booking for the Jawa models and those who will make one
before the midnight of October 22nd, 2019 will stand a chance to own this
motorcycle. All they must do is specify their intent towards opting for a draw
of lots for the allotment of this motorcycle at their nearest dealership. The
customers will automatically go back to their original booking sequence and
model if they are not selected in the draw. Once allotted, the motorcycles will
be immediately dispatched to the customers at their respective locations.
The
technical specifications of the motorcycle remain unchanged; it is powered by a
293cc, liquid cooled, single cylinder, DOHC engine nestled within a double
cradle chassis that is tuned to bring out the superlative handling and class
leading stability, making the new Jawa a true modern classic.
