2023 Jawa 300 CL Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Jawa's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2023 Jawa 300 CL utilizes a 294.7 cc (18 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 22.8 HP (16.6 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 25 Nm (18.4 lb-ft) at 5,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 77.4 HP per liter and a 1,250 rpm working window between peak torque (5,750 rpm) and peak power (7,000 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the 300 CL measures 182 kg (401 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.98 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 765 mm (30.1 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,370 mm (53.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 13.2-liter (3.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 125 km/h (78 mph).
