Janus keeps the 2024 Gryffin 250 on the same 229 cc air-cooled single, 14 hp, 5-speed and leading-link front end that defined the earlier bikes. Spoke 18s, 3.00/3.50 dual-sport rubber, hydraulic discs and a 2-gallon tank. Still built in Goshen, Indiana, still about 266 lb dry. The Jawa Perak twin that appeared in the old intro is a different motorcycle from a different country.

Best for
Best suited to relaxed retro-styled street cruising and short scenic rides rather than performance riding.
Built for
Has a classic, unhurried cruiser personality with a torquey low-mid range feel rather than outright speed.
Not ideal for
Not a fit for riders wanting sharp sport handling, off-road capability, or high-speed highway touring.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
