Jawa bucks the trend by rolling out this bobber

THE NONCONFORMIST

Let’s be honest — this bike is all about the looks. If I could somehow haul this bike up four storeys, I’d love to have it parked inside my bedroom. Yes, my folks would think that I have gone nuts, which I think they already do. I had this thought while I was seated in my chair punching keys on my laptop to write this story. And now, I am stuck with the thought of imagining this bobber-style motorcycle right by the bed. All I need is a paddock stand, and this Jawa will be a lovely place to sit and write stories from.

Coming back to reality, I strongly feel that the folks at Classic Legends hadn’t been thinking straight when they came up with the Perak. Having a long seat to fit as many passengers as possible is a priority, so do we have any scope for a bobber? I was even dumbstruck when I was casually looking up on YouTube for videos of the Perak andI came across one where the narrator’s first concern with the motorcycle was that it had only one seat! You’ve got to be joking, mate. It’s a bobber, and that’s how bobbers are supposed to be.
