Friday, 15 November 2024 06:00 PM The BSA Gold Star has been well-received in the UK and other countries, including France and the Netherlands, with 30 dealers now carrying the model. It was named ‘Retro Bike of the Year 2023’ at the Motorcycle News Awards. I think this recognition is a testament to the brands successful revival.

Friday, 20 September 2024 08:35 PM The new BSA Gold Star is available in several colors, including Insignia Red, Dawn Silver, Midnight Black, Highland Green, and a special Legacy Edition with a ‘Silver Sheen’ color. The Legacy Edition also includes chrome-finished fenders, mirrors, and levers.

Thursday, 08 August 2024 05:16 PM Classic Legends, the owner of BSA, has announced plans to move production of the Gold Star back to its spiritual home in Birmingham, although current production is in India. This move is seen as a significant step in honoring the brands British heritage.

Thursday, 14 March 2024 12:37 PM The 2024 BSA Gold Star features a 652cc fuel-injected, water-cooled single-cylinder engine producing 45hp and 55Nm of torque. It also comes with modern amenities like ABS and a digital-analog instrument cluster, blending classic aesthetics with contemporary technology. I believe this balance makes it appealing to both new and seasoned riders.

Sunday, 10 December 2023 11:50 AM The BSA Gold Star has been praised for its comfortable seating position and smooth gearbox, making it easy to ride around town. The bike also features Pirelli Phantom Sportcomp tires and Brembo brakes with Continental ABS.

Tuesday, 08 August 2023 06:26 AM Classic Legends, the company behind the BSA revival, has a diverse portfolio that includes Jawa and Yezdi brands, catering to various preferences of motorcycle enthusiasts. The BSA Gold Star is the latest addition to this portfolio, further strengthening the companys position in the Indian motorcycle market.

Tuesday, 14 March 2023 07:50 AM The BSA Gold Stars engine, while smooth once rolling, has been noted to have slightly sharp fueling at low speeds, a common challenge with single-cylinder fuel-injected engines. However, this does not detract from its overall performance and ease of use.

Saturday, 10 December 2022 07:22 PM The bikes design includes classic elements like a sleek fuel tank and wire-spoke wheels, but it also incorporates modern features such as a USB charger, although its placement has been criticized for not matching the classic look.

Monday, 15 November 2021 03:33 PM The revival of the BSA Gold Star marks a significant return for the brand, which had stopped production in 1973 due to financial difficulties. Classic Legends Pvt Ltd, a subsidiary of the Mahindra Group, purchased the brand in 2016 and unveiled the new Gold Star in 2021.

Monday, 15 November 2021 06:33 AM The BSA Gold Star is expected to be keenly priced, though exact pricing details for the New Zealand market have not been announced yet. The bikes quality components, such as Brembo brakes and Pirelli tires, suggest it will offer good value for money.
