2011 Chang-Jiang Jawa 353 Replica Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2011 Chang-Jiang Jawa 353 Replica classic motorcycle, Chang-Jiang pairs a 248.5 cc (15.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.8 HP (8.6 kW) at 4,600 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 47.5 HP per liter, the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

On the scales, the Jawa 353 Replica measures 135 kg (298 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (11.44 kg per horsepower). The 24-liter (6.3 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 800 km (497 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 90 km/h (56 mph).
