The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • Genuine standout factory-custom bobber styling with full-LED lighting and a digital cluster, real rarity in this price band
  • Real usable mid-range torque and genuinely cheaper than Jawas own flagship Perak

Worth knowing

  • Real noticeable vibration from around 5,000 rpm, with a genuinely harsh, industrial exhaust note
  • Real notchy low-speed gearbox and single-seat design that genuinely limits touring or pillion use
