Since the Jawa motorcycle is new in Nepal, it might need to struggle to compete against Royal Enfield and Honda. Royal Enfield among the two will surely make it hard for Jawa as this has already made a huge name in Nepal and people have already associated it as a feeling. However, it can compete against Honda’s latest release Honda CB350RS and Honda H’ness CB350 for the bragging rights.
It can take a lot of time for Jawa motorcycle in Nepal to gain the reputation and trust of the people as Honda and Royal Enfield has. But, with the models it has presented, it surely can gain a lot of followers here in Nepal as well.
