353

Jawa 250 Type 353 was a standard motorcycle designed and manufactured by Jawa Motorcycles in Czechoslovakia starting from 1954 till 1962. This motorcycle succeeded Jawa Perak 250 in the year 1954 and later Jawa 250 Type 559 succeeded Jawa 250 Type 353 in the year 1962. The motorcycle was also manufactured in India by Ideal Jawa under license of Jawa Motorcycles from 1962 to 1973. Initially Ideal Jawa imported these motorcycles as CKD units and assembled in Mysore and sold them as the construction of the factory was not complete. Some variants of the same motorcycle were manufactured in Turkey and China. These motorcycles were famous for their symmetrical design language, ease of maintenance and reliability. This was the first Jawa motorcycle to have rear suspension springs, hence these were also called as "Kývačka 250" which translates to Spring 250 in English. There were basically four variants of Jawa Type 353.
