Jawa Motorcycle is all set to make a grand comeback in India. Just yesterday, the brand unveiled its new 300cc engine that will feature in the new upcoming motorcycles in India. The iconic brand has now confirmed that the new Jawa motorcyle will be unveiled on 15th November. The Czech motorcycle brand goes way back in India when Jawa Motorcycle was one of the very few manufacturers that was available in India. When launched, Jawa will again take on its old rival Royal Enfield Bullet 350. Back in the day, Jawa bikes were adored for their reliability, quick acceleration and off-road capabilities to an extent.
