Fresh updates reveal that the waiting period of Jawa and Forty-Two is down to 3 months, but still up to 8 months in Southern cities.
Finally, good news for all the Jawa buyers. The manufacturers have increased the production capacity at its Pithampur plant and the waiting period is now down to atleast 3 months in most of the cities.
Jawa received an overwhelming response for both its motorcycles, so much so that even they themselves couldn’t perceive. Very soon, the Jawa motorcycles started seeing the unreasonable amount of waiting period as they were all immediately sold out.
Jawa launched in India with the standard Jawa and the Forty Two, both of which are seeing a waiting period of anything between 6-10 months in major cities. The company has been struggling with production and in keeping up with demand and that has turned off several customers. Some even took their bookings back instead of waiting for so long.
