Design and Heritage

Engine and Performance

A single-cylinder engine with a rarity factor due to its small size carries all the key components that make up the heart of a Gold star 650cc giving it an out-of-the-world feeling among multi-cylinder driven markets today. The engine provides torque for relaxed rides at 45 horsepower at 6.5k RPM and 55 Nm at four thousand RPMs torque which makes it be known for its torquey nature while riding lazily. Also designed to guarantee good engine performance is a dual-spark plug system as well as liquid cooling features. The bike’s top speed is supposed to be around one hundred kilometres per hour making it suitable both for city driving and expeditions along highways.

Riding Dynamics and Comfort

The use of tubular steel frame not only enhances its classic appearance but also helps in improving its handling when built into a Gold star 650 model type. When combined with adjustable preload telescopic front forks and rear twin shock absorbers, this suspension makes biking comfortable on different surfaces. Although the weight of this bike is relatively high at 213.5kg, it does have a fast confident feel to it due to its stability. With its seat height of 780mm, this model can accommodate many people and thus improve overall comfort.
