The Jawa 42 All Stars has finally arrived as the third and final motorcycle in Jawa’s All Stars range. But this is not just another special edition with a few cosmetic changes.
Jawa Yezdi Motorcycles says the updated 42 gets more than 60 enhancements, making it the biggest evolution yet of the motorcycle that helped establish the brand’s modern classic identity in India.
Priced from ₹1,79,942 ex-showroom, Delhi, the new Jawa 42 gets a wider and more muscular stance, redesigned side panels, new alloy wheels, a wider rear tyre and a compact upswept twin exhaust.
Jawa 42 All Stars Completes the All Stars Lineup
The Jawa 42 All Stars completes the brand’s three-motorcycle All Stars family, joining the Jawa 42 FJ and Jawa 42 Bobber.
The All Stars range is built around a common identity centred on character, conduct and courage. The three motorcycles get the All Stars insignia and star-inspired detailing to connect them under the same theme.
However, the new Jawa 42 takes things further than simply adding new colours and graphics. The company says more than 60 enhancements have been made across areas including design, chassis, ergonomics, handling and comfort.
Jawa 42 All Stars Gets a Wider and Sportier Look
The biggest change is immediately visible in the motorcycle’s stance.
Jawa has redesigned the rear section with a wider rear fender
Jawa has also redesigned the seat with additional cushioning
The motorcycle also gets a new alloy wheel design and a more compact upswept twin exhaust. According to Jawa, the revised exhaust has also been designed to offer more resilient water wading.
The side panels, footpegs and rear section have been reworked as well, giving the motorcycle cleaner lines and a sportier appearance.
Engine and Performance
The Jawa 42 All Stars continues with the familiar 294.72cc single-cylinder, four-stroke, liquid-cooled DOHC engine.
The engine produces 27.19 PS at 7,950 rpm and 26.3 Nm at 6,000 rpm and is paired with a six-speed constant-mesh gearbox.
The motorcycle gets electronic fuel injection and continues with dual-channel ABS. Braking hardware includes a 280mm front disc and a 240mm rear disc.
The Jawa 42 also retains its 13.2-litre fuel tank, round headlamp and characteristic bench-style seat.

What Makes the New Jawa 42 Interesting?
The Jawa 42 All Stars is interesting because Jawa has not tried to completely change the motorcycle’s identity.
The round headlamp, bench-style seat and familiar modern-classic design remain, but the motorcycle now gets a wider rear tyre, revised bodywork, new alloy wheels, an upswept exhaust and changes to its chassis and ergonomics.
The 294.72cc engine also remains unchanged in terms of its core specification, producing 27.19 PS and 26.3 Nm.
The real question will be how much difference these changes make on the road.
Jawa says the updated chassis, ergonomics and mass distribution are aimed at improving agility, handling and comfort, so the riding experience will ultimately determine whether the 60-plus enhancements make the new 42 feel substantially better than before.
The new Jawa 42 All Stars does not try to reinvent the motorcycle. Instead, Jawa has focused on improving several areas while keeping the design and character that riders already associate with the 42.
The wider rear tyre, revised styling, new alloy wheels, updated ergonomics and chassis changes make it a more substantial update than a typical special edition.
The biggest question now is whether these changes translate into a noticeably better riding experience. That will ultimately decide how significant this new chapter in the Jawa 42 story really is.
