Starting with the powertrain, the 42 FJ gets the updated 334 cc engine from the brand’s stable and both engine variants (293 cc and 334 cc) will co-exist in the Jawa 42 line-up. The 334 cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine churns out 29 bhp and 29.6 Nm of torque. This engine is also at the heart of the new Yezdi Adventure as well but in a different state of tune. 
 

On the design front, the new variant features a sportier design than the Jawa 42. The twin exhausts now have a slightly upswept design, while the teardrop-shaped fuel tank and side covers are retained. Moreover, the semi-digital instrument console, as well as full-LED lighting has also been retained. The 42 FJ is also marginally taller at 790 mm than the smaller 42.
