Jawa Motorcycles - CEO, Ashish Joshi said, “This was the right timing to have come up with this range of motorcycles, as the Indian premium motorcycle market is not only growing but also evolving in consumer tastes and preferences. At our recently concluded Jawa Experience media ride program in Udaipur we have received rave reviews as a testimony to our efforts in building both these motorcycles.”

The Jawa Motorcycle dealerships will see a mix of old and new with the outlets incorporating a lot of nostalgic elements. The stores will have a bike cafe ambience, while the walls will be dressed with the brand's history. Jawa says the showrooms capture "the nostalgia of a golden era with dark polished wood fixtures, subtle inlays, raw textures and vintage oxblood upholsteries."
