Can't decide what's better, the thoughtful new updates or the tastefully done, and very informative video (not always an easy balance to achieve). Keep up the great work, guys! PS - Any plans for a matching sidecar in the future? The ability to add one to your bike as a simple, bolt-on option at a later date would make the overall package highly desirable IMO.
I believe I saw metal fairing lowers on a tan 250 in a recent video somewhere. Is that a factory option? And on the 450 as well? If not, why not make them available, perhaps with round cutouts to mount vintage yellow fog lamps?
Its the 450 I'd be interested in. I own a Mash dirt track which utilises exactly the same engine as in your 450cc bikes only as a 650 cc. Would be interesting to see the 650 cc engine in one of your bikes. The Mash Dirt Track has full European conformity, so selling your 450 in Euro should be achievable.
Cool looking. However the 450 is severally over priced. I'm sure it's fun around town but , looks uncomfortable for any longer distances. The bike marketplace is feeling the effects of over priced offerings. I sadly see no difference here.
Front fender is excellent protects the engine and exhausts from water dusts sand and grit etc .u like Japanese and european motorcycles which have a quarter fender which does absolutely nothing to protect the front of the motorcycle
Beautiful, unfortunately far too expensive and so this small but fine brand will probably disappear again in a short time. And that's a shame, I really like the style of the motorcycles!
Please don't delete this again janus! I am a retired engineer with 50+ year of riding/repairing motorbikes under my belt. Chinese bikes end up in the parts section on CL within 2 years. They are not required to keep parts inventory for current models. Let alone previous models. I just visited your site. I see accessories but NO repair parts? What happens if I crash your bike? How do I buy parts? How does an adjuster perform an estimate? No thank you.
Very good point mrmark. I had not considered engine parts availability. My no-go features are tube type tires and sub 60hp engines. If Janus must have spoke wheels, they should at least use the tubeless types where the spokes do not intrude into the rim. I wish them success as they are a finely built motorcycle, just not for me.
Thank you for your questions. Our motorcycles are not made in China. Like every other motorcycle OEM, though, some parts do come from China, including the motor. We stock spare parts at our headquarters in Goshen, IN and have worked with adjusters to provide estimates when necessary. We are a small, dedicated team that wants to keep our motorcycles on the road as much as our owners want to ride them. In-depth parts orders with specific repair parts are handled directly through our service and parts departments. We hope you can visit us at our headquarters in Goshen, IN sometime to see the production floor!

You obviously didn't look very deep into the gear on the bike. All the major components are upgraded and everything is bigger and stronger yet still a light motorcycle. It may be the most expensive 450 on the market but it is a distinctive machine.
@ if you were to make a similar custom bike and get a non Chinese engine, suspension and brake components you would be looking at a much bigger price tag
Nice, great to see Janus always striving to improve on an already cool product line and the customer experience.
Cool bikes. but why chinese motors?
Love the old look.
The milk crate is cool man! Love that! Really old school! Love it, love it!
Thanks!
👍 having a more streamlined lineup and starting at the Origin pricing is a great move
thank you! come visit soon!

Love it! Would still like to see a Red\White\Blue paint and trim model.
The maize color is very handsome indeed!
thanks!
Nice! Here’s to a real 2025, see you on the ramble stream!
thanks friend!
When it comes to this trend of modern retros , Janus takes the cake.
Looking good!
Who makes the engines ?
Awesome!!!!
Love the beach bars!

these are nice classic looking bikes. my only question is; where do you source your engines?
Cool bikes saludos desde Michoacán México 🎉
When is UK dealer starting?
I really like your bikes, and it's great to see an American company doing so well. Do you have service centers in America?
Any plans on making bigger fuel tanks? Maybe adding another gallon?
No plans for that at the moment. But we do offer the MSR fuel bottle mount for that peace of mind :)
Oh, come on, open a dealership in the UK where we appreciate clasic/retro bikes.
We hope to one day!
So when is Janus coming over to Europe, where we much more appreciate the stylish light and medium retro motorcycles?
Man I love Janus! Keep it up gentlemen! Open a dealership here in central Florida!
They sell similar on Amazon.
Super 🎉
I want one
Howdy 🤠
Sehr schöne Motorräder. Sind das Honda Motoren? 😊👍👍👍👍
Looks like some aMAIZE-ing upgrades!! 😁
ha!
Employee?
ClevelandMoto Podcast is your Biggest Advertisement platform, you owe them Your jANUS.
When will your bikes come to the UK ?
With Euro restrictions, the 250 might not make it. They have it very lean to meet US standards.
Might want to import a used bike.

Amazon sell similar Chinese tat.
I love bikes, any bike but 13 grand for a 450 geez

If u wanna complain look at prices for other motorcycles

Open a factory in China

How many janus employees are commenting here?
i'm the first one by my estimation! :)
Not me, too spendy and slow. But maybe , maybe not.
Wish it had a more 30s style
Lol
@@BobSmith-k9z-check out the Halcyon series
Chinese engines and parts.
As an expat Australian of 33 years in S/E Asia, the Chinese do it right

@@mrmark8603 I bought an Amazon bike. You're right, after the starter broke I could find a replacement. I had to give it away.
Disabled comments is a bad look.
Interesting, but all hardtails and the engine made by communists... non starter...
One hard tail model, three full suspension models, and all electric start.
Chinese.No thanks.

All manufacturers use off shore components.
Agree, hypocrite & doesent even know it
Exactly.
Another Amazon product.
@@hurtnpinksock What's your job at j anus?
@@mrmark8603 the ignorance in you comment is astounding.
Good ad Richard!! 🤠🦬
How do you justify doubling the price from the 250 to the 450? I don't get it. What a complete disservice.

@@Diurama1212 Chinese engine, suspension and brakes! No thank you!
@@deadcarz4926 that’s fine but nearly every major manufacturer uses China for engines. I don’t think the suspension on the 450 is Chinese

@@Diurama1212 Just build one.
