The JAWA 300 is a flagship model in the new JAWA motorcycle portfolio that Classic Legends Private Limited unveiled in 2018.
The iconic nature of this motorcycle is abundantly clear from the design alone. The nostalgic mood brings to life the iconic 1960s, incorporating the old-school teardrop-shaped fuel tank with chrome and ‘Jawa’ badging. So, the bike brings back the classic retro styling of the 20th century.
Jawa Standard shares the mechanical features with Jawa 42. But its design grabs the attention of many audiences. The JAWA is best for calm cruising rather than hard acceleration. The excellent handling and ride quality, especially on bad roads, makes it a preferred choice of many riding enthusiasts, with a good ground clearance with a kerb weight of 172 kg.
The new Jawa motorcycle features a lot of chrome and a traditional retro appearance. The bike features a classic teardrop-shaped gasoline tank with ‘Jawa’ badging on either side, and most of the tank comprises chrome. The rounded headlamps and the integrated single-pod instrument cluster further enhance the classic design.
The new Jawa motorcycle has wide seats and swept-back side panels, which lend to the machine’s unique character. The chrome gas-charged rear suspension shocks and the twin exhaust pipes add to the drama.
The Jawa motorcycle’s rear has a straightforward design. The small tail lamp, the bottom number plate, and the pillion’s grab rails are all body-coloured.
Earlier, Jawa came in three colour options but introducing two additional distinctive colours reduced the number to five.
Jawa Standard gets two variants:
Jawa Standard gets powered by a 293cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine with 27.33 bhp power @ 6,800rpm and 27.02Nm torque @ 5000rpm.
The new Jawa motorcycle’s engine is built on the same powertrain as the Mahindra Mojo. The engine, however, got tuned differently. So, it now sounds like the original engines used in bikes in the 20th century.

It connects to a six-speed manual transmission.
The motorcycle’s foundation hasn’t changed—only the motor is now BS6 compliant. The Jawa employs gas-charged shock absorbers with a 5-step preload adjustment and a telescopic fork up front.
The front disc brake and the rear drum or disc brake secure the bicycle.
The new Jawa motorcycle boasts a 280mm disc brake up front, supplemented by ABS, and 153mm drum brakes at the rear for further security.

Another noteworthy feature of the new Jawa motorbike is the single-pod instrument cluster mounted on top of the front headlamps. The analogue instrument cluster has a speedometer and fuel gauge with traditional styling.

Jawa Standard is so similar to the original that you could think it has been tastefully refurbished. The intricate details that Classic Legends had paid attention that come to light when looked at closely.
The Jawa isn’t a motorcycle that would burst ahead from a traffic signal; it is most comfortable in the mid-range, travelling at 60-80kmph.
The Jawa accomplishes its goal of being a motorcycle that is simple to handle and isn’t overly heavy at 170kg. It also sports excellent brakes, a well-refined engine, and reasonable quality components.
