Jawa Dual-Channel ABS Deliveries Start

The dual-channel ABS variants were launched in December last year.
Both the motorcycles carry a premium of around Rs 9,000 over their standard single-channel ABS models.
Waiting period for the motorcycles is still high in major cities.

There’s no denying that Jawa created a storm in the Indian two-wheeler industry. The company got such an overwhelming response that it had to hold its booking process and is now facing a lot of issues with the delivery process. However, after almost seven months, the manufacturer has finally started the delivery process of the Jawa/ Jawa Forty dual-channel ABS variants.

The dual-channel ABS-equipped variants of the standard model and the Forty Two were launched in December last year. It’s not just that these variants have been delayed; in fact, if you are planning to buy either of the standard variants, the waiting period still varies between 7-10 months in major cities. So if you book yourself a brand new Jawa now, there’s a possibility that it might be delivered by April-May, which is when Royal Enfield might be bringing its revamped Classic 350.

Here’s how long you have to wait for your motorcycle:

City	Waiting period for Jawa (dual-channel ABS)
Mumbai	7 to 9 months
Delhi	7 to 9 months
Bangalore	8 to 9 months
Chennai	7 to 9 months

City	Waiting period for Jawa Forty (dual-channel ABS)
Mumbai	8 to 9 months
Delhi	7 to 9 months
Bangalore	7 to 9 months
Hyderabad	7 to 9 months

Breaking Down BS6 Carburettors And Fuel Injection Explained

It’s now been nearly 4 months since BS6 emission norms came into effect, and almost all the bikes and scooters sold in India have been updated to meet the stricter regulations. Most recent among these to receive the updates was the TVS Scooty Zest BS6 , which was launched a couple of days ago at Rs 58,640. Like all the BS6 updates we’ve seen so far, this new version is more expensive than its BS4 predecessor, by around Rs 6,000 in this case. And the biggest reason behind these price hikes is the addition of a fuel-injection system. So what exactly is it? And how did bikes work before fuel-injection came into the picture? Let’s take a look: To understand why a fuel-injection (FI) system is needed, we first need to understand its predecessor: the carburettor. Both FI and carburettors do the same job: mixing air and fuel in the correct proportions before it’s sent into the engine. The diagram above shows a carburettor’s layout. Air enters at the top, flows through a narrow con...

Honda HNess Cruiser India Launch Tomorrow

Honda is all set to launch its first small-capacity retro motorcycle tomorrow. The recent trademark images suggest that the upcoming motorcycle might be called H’Ness, and cost around Rs 1.95 lakh (ex-showroom). There were rumours about the upcoming bike being the Honda Rebel 300. However, going by the recently-released teaser of the exhaust note , it is likely to pack an old-school air-cooled long-stroke fuel-injected motor displacing somewhere around 350-400cc. That’s a complete departure from the single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine in the Rebel. Expect plenty of low-end torque accompanied by the traditional Honda-levels of refinement in the upcoming bike. For representation The Honda H'Ness is expected to come with the same roadster-like design language as the Honda CB1100 EX. It is likely to feature a traditional front fork, twin rear shock absorbers and disc brake on both ends with ABS as standard. For an added retro appeal, expect it to use spoke wheels with tubed ...
