Jawa Perak's deliveries will commence in India from July 20
What's the story
Jawa Motorcycles India has revealed the delivery date of the Perak via a rather cryptic tweet. In its post, the automaker has shared three images, which when put together, reveal that the deliveries of the Bobber-styled cruiser will commence from July 20, 2020. To recall, the release of the Perak was postponed in March this year due to the COVID-19 induced lockdown.
