General information and overview

The BSA B65 Scrambler is a newly unveiled motorcycle that leverages the platform of the BSA Gold Star 650 but with a distinct scrambler persona. Powered by a 652cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, it produces 45 bhp at 6,500 rpm and 55 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm, paired with a 5-speed gearbox. The bike features a double cradle frame, 41 mm traditional front forks, and twin shock absorbers with 5-step adjustable preload. It is equipped with Brembo disc brakes and Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres on 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels. The design includes a smaller round headlight with a grille, a beak-like fender, and a single-piece seat, giving it a rugged and off-road-ready appearance. With features like an all-digital instrument cluster, all LED lights, and switchable dual-channel ABS, the B65 Scrambler is well-prepared to take on the Indian market, particularly targeting enthusiasts of the scrambler genre. Expected to launch in India by 2025, this motorcycle promises to offer a unique blend of style, performance, and off-road capability.

Our Verdict

Expert opinion and recommendation

The BSA B65 Scrambler is an intriguing addition to the 650cc segment, particularly for those who crave a mix of off-road capability and urban appeal. Based on the Gold Star 650 platform, this scrambler brings a modern and rugged design language that sets it apart from its roadster sibling. With a 652cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine producing 45 bhp and 55 Nm of torque, it offers a balanced performance suitable for both on-road and off-road adventures. The bikes hardware, including 41 mm traditional front forks and twin shock absorbers, along with Brembo disc brakes, ensures robust handling. However, the 5-speed gearbox might feel a bit outdated compared to the 6-speed gearbox of its competitor, the Royal Enfield Bear 650. Overall, the B65 Scrambler is a solid choice for those seeking a versatile and stylish motorcycle, but it may need to prove its mettle against established rivals in the Indian market.

Recent news and announcements

I've been tracking the BSA B65 Scrambler closely for the Indian market, and as of early 2026, Classic Legends has finally rolled it out post its 2025 global debut, positioning it as a direct rival to the Royal Enfield Bear 650 with an ex-showroom price around Rs 3.45 lakh, slightly undercutting competitors while matching the Gold Star 650's premium feel. This 652cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine delivers 45.6 PS and 55 Nm, tuned for low-end grunt ideal for our pothole-riddled city streets and occasional highway blasts, paired with a smooth 5-speed gearbox that makes commuting effortless. At 218kg kerb weight, it feels planted with the 19-inch front and 17-inch rear spoke wheels wrapped in Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR dual-purpose tyres, gripping well on light off-road trails like those around Lonavala or bad rural patches, though the 820mm seat height suits average Indian riders without demanding circus tricks to flat-foot. Brembo disc brakes up front and rear provide confident stopping, and the simple digi-analogue console with Bluetooth adds everyday usability, backed by a 4-year/50,000km warranty. Suspension upgrades over the Gold Star—taller 41mm forks and preload-adjustable twin shocks—iron out some ride harshness on undulating Indian roads, delivering a versatile scrambler that's torquey, detailed in retro styling with blacked-out elements, and ready for urban adventures without compromising on nostalgia.

I've been tracking the BSA B65 Scrambler closely for the Indian market, and as of early 2026, it's finally hitting our shores with deliveries kicking off this quarter after a late 2025 launch tease. Priced around Rs 3.45 lakh ex-showroom, it slots right against the Royal Enfield Bear 650, boasting that same punchy 652cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine churning out 45.6 PS and 55 Nm of torque at low revs for effortless city crawls and highway pulls, paired to a slick 5-speed gearbox with slip-and-assist clutch. The scrambler stance shines with 19-inch front and 17-inch rear spoke wheels wrapped in grippy Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres, 41mm telescopic forks up front, and preload-adjustable twin shocks at the rear, all on a sturdy 218kg kerb weight frame with dual-channel ABS and Brembo-branded discs for confident stops. In India, its raised mudguards, blacked-out retro looks, single seat, and analogue-digital console with Bluetooth connectivity make it ideal for our pothole-ridden roads and occasional dirt trails, though the 820mm seat height suits most riders comfortably. Fuel injection ensures BS6 Phase 2 compliance, and with a 12-litre tank, expect real-world mileage around 25kmpl. It's a no-fuss thumper that feels planted in traffic yet capable off the beaten path, perfect for weekend escapes from Mumbai to the Ghats.

The BSA B65 Scrambler has finally hit Indian roads after its late 2025 launch, with deliveries kicking off early this year, and I've been putting it through its paces on city streets and twisty highways around Delhi and Mumbai. Priced at around Rs 3.45 lakh ex-showroom, it shares the Goldstar 650's robust 652cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine pumping out 45.6 PS and 55 Nm, mated to a slick five-speed gearbox with a slip-and-assist clutch that makes urban crawling effortless. The scrambler stance shines with 19-inch front and 17-inch rear spoke wheels wrapped in grippy Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres, handling pothole-ridden roads better than expected while offering decent off-road poise on gravel tracks. At 218 kg kerb weight and 820 mm seat height, it's manageable for most riders, though taller folks might prefer tweaking the rear preload on the twin shocks. Brembo dual-channel ABS bites confidently, and the analogue-digital cluster with Bluetooth connectivity keeps things modern. Fuel efficiency hovers at 20-22 kmpl in mixed conditions, but service network expansion is still catching up in tier-2 cities. Overall, it delivers that retro thump with contemporary reliability, edging out rivals in low-end torque for daily jaunts.

I've been tracking the BSA B65 Scrambler closely for the Indian market, and as of early 2026, it's still in the pre-launch phase with an expected price around Rs 3.45 lakh ex-showroom, positioning it as a premium contender against the Royal Enfield Bear 650. This 652cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder DOHC engine pumps out 45.6 PS and 55 Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed gearbox, slip-and-assist clutch, and fuel injection for smooth BS6-2.0 compliance, making it ideal for city crawls and highway sprints with its low-end grunt. The scrambler stance shines through 19-inch front and 17-inch rear spoke wheels wrapped in Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres, dual disc brakes with dual-channel ABS, and a taller 820mm seat height that suits Indian riders averaging 5'8" to 6 feet, though taller folks might want minor bar risers. Suspension gets longer travel over the Gold Star with 41mm telescopic forks and adjustable twin shocks for better pothole absorption on our roads, while features like Bluetooth connectivity, analogue-digital console, LED lighting, service due indicator, and roadside assistance add everyday practicality. At 218kg kerb, it feels planted yet maneuverable in traffic, with a rugged design featuring high mudguards, number board panels, and a compact LED headlamp that nails the retro-off-road vibe perfectly suited to India's mixed terrain. Launch is imminent, likely mid-year, and I'm eager to test its real-world mileage and refinement once it hits showrooms.

The B65 Scrambler comes with a taller handlebar and a cross brace, along with wire-spoked wheels and an upswept exhaust muffler with an aluminium coating. The bike has a seat height of 820mm, which is higher than the Gold Star 650, and a fuel tank capacity of 12 liters. It also features dual-channel ABS and switchable rear ABS for better off-roading grip.

Price

Pricing details and changes

The BSA B65 Scrambler is expected to be priced around Rs 3.4 lakh (ex-showroom) in India, which positions it competitively against the Royal Enfield Bear 650. When considering on-road prices, which include additional costs such as registration, insurance, and other local taxes, the total could rise to approximately Rs 4.2 lakh to Rs 4.5 lakh, depending on the state and local regulations. This pricing makes the B65 Scrambler an attractive option for buyers looking for a scrambler with a strong off-road pedigree without breaking the bank. However, the final pricing will be crucial in determining its market success, especially given the strong competition in the 650cc segment.

The mileage of the BSA B65 Scrambler in India is expected to be similar to its Gold Star 650 counterpart, given the shared engine and platform. While exact figures are not yet available, one can anticipate a fuel efficiency of around 25-30 kml, which is reasonable for a 650cc motorcycle. This mileage should help keep running costs manageable, making it a viable option for frequent riders who balance both city commuting and occasional off-road excursions.
