The black finish on the wheels lends a sporty appeal to the bike. In terms of design, the 42 Bobber takes the design cues from the Perak with a similar set of dual port exhaust, however, the presenter pointed out a major change in the placement of the tail lamp. The bike rides on 140 section 17-inch rear and 100 section 18-inch front wheels shod with CEAT rubber. According to the presenter, the headlight seems to be inspired by Harley Davidson motorcycles and makes a case for itself in terms of appearance and the tank will also provide a better grip during riding. Further, he explains some of the features of the instrument cluster along with showcasing the handlebar and charging ports. Jawa has given good attention to detail in terms of design which is reflected by the Jawa logo on the hand grips. The video also contains the exhaust note of the 42 Bobber and it sounds pretty good, to say the least.
