The 2018 Jawa 350 OHC Special has just been revealed and is already garnering a positive response. Thanks to Mahindra Two Wheelers signing a licensing agreement with the Czech brand, it is about to make its re-entry in India in 2019 after a long hiatus.

Being a sibling of the 350 OHC, we can at least hope that we get to see the 350 Special too on Indian roads. The Jawa 350 Special is a retro race replica that harkens back to race motorcycles from the 1960s and 1970s, and for that, we love the way it looks. Here is a closer look at the 2018 Jawa 350 Special: [caption id=“attachment_4461701” align=“alignnone” width=“1280”] The Jawa 350 OHC Special is a fully-faired version of the 350 OHC.
