Jawa 42 FJ All Stars launched in India from Rs 2.02 lakh

Jawa 42 FJ All Stars launched in India from Rs 2.02 lakh

Jawa has rolled out the 42 FJ All Stars, a new trim of its neo-classic roadster, with prices starting at Rs 2.02 lakh and going up to Rs 2.16 lakh, ex-showroom Delhi. The bike is aimed at buyers who want the 42 FJ's cafe-racer stance but with a bit more visual flair than the standard version.

What's new on the All Stars edition

The big change here is cosmetic. The All Stars range gets fresh paint treatments, including Chrome and matte black finishes, spread across six colourways in total. Nebula Blue is one of the confirmed shades, alongside the Chrome option, giving buyers more ways to personalise the bike without touching the mechanicals.

Jawa 42 FJ All Stars colour and price options

  • Prices range from Rs 2.02 lakh to Rs 2.16 lakh, ex-showroom Delhi
  • Six colourways on offer across the range
  • Chrome finish available as a premium option
  • Matte black paint scheme for a stealthier look
  • Nebula Blue confirmed as one of the shades

Engine and performance unchanged

Under the tank, the All Stars sticks with the familiar 334cc engine that powers the rest of the 42 FJ line-up. Output stays at 29.1hp and 29.6Nm, so this update is about wardrobe, not muscle. Anyone expecting a performance bump will be better served waiting for a mechanical update instead.

Should you pick the All Stars trim?

If you were already eyeing a 42 FJ and just wanted a colourway that stands out more in a parking lot, the All Stars edition gives you that option without a steep premium over the regular bike. Riders chasing more power or updated electronics won't find anything different here, so the base variants remain just as capable a buy.

Given the price stays close to the standard 42 FJ, is the extra chrome and colour choice enough to sway your pick?

TT Score

8/10

The Jawa 42 FJ is a strong-value 334cc roadster with claimed 32 kmpl efficiency and a very positive 4.5/5 owner score, but its 184 kg weight and single-channel ABS limit its everyday and safety appeal.

Who it suits

  • Mileage-conscious mid-size rider — The 334cc petrol engine is claimed to return 32 kmpl, giving it unusually strong efficiency for this engine size.
  • Value-focused retro-bike buyer — The approximate ₹1.84 lakh–₹2.16 lakh ex-showroom range gives buyers a broad price entry into a 334cc, 28.76 bhp motorcycle.
  • Highway-capable commuter — The 6-speed gearbox, 12-litre tank and 130 kmph claimed top speed make it suited to regular longer-distance use.
  • Owner-feedback-focused buyer — OUR figure is 4.5/5 from 123 owner ratings, providing a comparatively substantial positive ownership signal.

Worth knowing

  • · At 184 kg, it is a fairly heavy motorcycle for frequent stop-start city use.
  • · The published safety specification lists only 1-channel ABS, rather than dual-channel ABS.
  • · Published on-road prices range from ₹2.27 lakh in Kolkata to ₹2.52 lakh in Bangalore and Hyderabad, so the final purchase cost varies substantially by city.
