Jawa 500

Jawa 500

With its pressed-steel frame and shaft drive, the ‘29 Jawa was a masterpiece of its time.

However, it also came with a hefty price-tag, and only 1,016 units were produced.

Sporting a 499cc four-stroke motor with overhead valves, this gentleman tourer could reach speeds of up to 100kph.
