IPL 2023: Ruturaj Gaikwad has taken some inspiration from MS Dhoni. The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) opener has gotten into the bike fandom like his captain. The 25-year-old has acquired a Jawa 42 Bobber in his garage. The star batter has played a relatively small number of times for the Indian national cricket team; his debut came against Sri Lanka in a T20 last year. His final appearance for Team India was in the opening ODI matchup with South Africa in October. However, Gaikwad is the mainstay for CSK for the last three Indian Premier League (IPL) seasons.

Finished in Moonstone White, the brand-new Jawa 42 Bobber was recently delivered to Gaikwad. The bike is priced at Rs. 2.07 lakh ex-showroom. The 42 Bobber, Jawa’s second such model after the elder Perak, is also the most reasonably priced factory-built Bobber on the market in the nation.
Although the 42 Bobber’s appearance is drastically different from that of the roadster, it is based on the conventional 42. A lower set floating single seat, larger tyres, minimal bodywork, forward-facing footpegs, and new handlebars significantly alter the riding ergonomics. The vehicle also receives a revision and tuning to the suspension setup.
In contrast to the normal 42, the 42 Bobber uses the Perak’s bigger displacement engine. The motor has a 6-speed transmission and produces 30.2 horsepower and 32.74 Nm of maximum torque. ABS with two channels is typical.
Ruturaj Gaikwad and MS Dhoni
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper MS Dhoni has got a sweet automobile collection. And he doesn’t ever shy to show them off to his former or current teammates. Last month, MSD was spotted in Ranchi, taking Ruturaj Gaikwad and Kedar Jadhav to a late-night drive in his new SUV from KIA. Along with that car from KIA, MS Dhoni also owns a few luxury cars and exotic motorcycles.
Ruturaj Gaikwad and Kedar Jadhav were in Ranchi for their Vijay Hazare matches. And taking time from their schedule, the duo visited MS Dhoni. The former India captain then took Ruturaj and Kedar on a joyride in his car.
