Our take on this /// Verdict
The Jawa Khakhee is a motorcycle that embodies a unique blend of nostalgia, patriotism, and modern engineering. My experience with this bike was nothing short of exceptional, particularly due to its exclusive khaki livery and the Indian Army insignia, which evokes a sense of pride and responsibility. The refinements introduced in this model, such as the cross-port cylinder head, have significantly improved the power delivery, making the bottom-end and mid-range punchier. However, there are some minor drawbacks, like the partially restricted speedometer visibility and the engine heating up in congested roads. Despite these, the riding pleasure remains uncompromised, and the firmer seat cushioning is a welcome change. Overall, the Jawa Khakhee is a premium motorcycle that stands out not just for its performance but also for its limited production run and special tribute to the Indian Army.
Price
The Jawa Khakhee is priced at Rs 1.93 lakh ex-showroom in Delhi, which places it in a competitive segment of the Indian motorcycle market. When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other charges, the price can go up to around Rs 2.20 lakh to Rs 2.30 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. Given its unique features, limited production, and the emotional value attached to its design, the price seems justified for those who are looking for a motorcycle that is both a tribute to the Indian Army and a statement piece. However, for practical buyers seeking a more feature-rich or comfort-oriented ride, there might be other options to consider within the same price bracket.
2024 Jawa Khakhee on road price is Rs 2.26 lakh in Delhi, Rs 2.34 lakh in Mumbai, Rs 2.29 lakh in Kolkata and Rs 2.32 lakh in Chennai. The prices mentioned here are approximate and we suggest you contact your nearest Jawa dealership to get the exact on-road price quote in your city.

I think bike should install a digital meter as well. It would be helpful. Seat should be better as my Royal Enfield provides better seat than my Jawa Classic.

Best Features: Look of Bike

Pros: Look of bike is good, performance is also top notch with a great mileage.

Cons: Seats should be more comfortable. Service station is almost 40kms away from my place.
