In a recent review, the BSA Gold Star 650 was praised for its characterful engine, which is smooth, punchy, and remarkably vibration-free. However, the bike was criticized for its soft rear suspension and uncomfortable seat, which can be a letdown for long rides. I think addressing these issues could make this bike a top contender in its segment.

The BSA Gold Star 650 features a heavily reworked Rotax origin engine and comes with imported components like Pirelli Phantom Sportscomp tires and Brembo braking hardware. However, the tires have been noted to not be the best suited for Indian road conditions, suggesting a possible switch to alternatives like Vredestein Centauros.

The BSA Gold Star 650s braking setup, which includes Brembo calipers at both ends, has received positive feedback for its sharp and responsive performance. However, the overall ownership experience still needs improvement, particularly in terms of dealer footprint and long-term reliability.

The bikes design and styling have been well-received, with a round halogen headlamp, a 12L teardrop fuel tank, and Chrome elements. The Legacy Edition variant, in particular, stands out with its Chrome finishing on parts like the fenders and rearview mirrors. I believe the attention to detail in the design makes it a standout in the market.

Riders have noted that the BSA Gold Star 650 is more suited as a city runabout rather than a long-distance tourer due to its soft seat and rear suspension issues. Despite this, the bike handles well on paved roads and is fun to ride, especially in corners.

The 2024 BSA Gold Star 650 has been launched in India with a starting price of Rs. 2.99 lakh (ex-showroom). This bike is notable for being the largest capacity single-cylinder motorcycle in the Indian market, powered by a 652cc liquid-cooled engine producing 45 BHP and 55 Nm of torque. I believe the retro styling and modern engineering make it a compelling choice for classic bike enthusiasts.

The BSA Gold Star 650 has been observed to have a slight vibration at higher RPMs, but it adds to the bikes character rather than detracting from the ride experience. The gearbox is slick, but the clutch action is slightly on the heavier side, which can be a hassle in heavy traffic.

BSA has continued its global expansion by launching the Gold Star in India, marking a significant return of the British motorcycle brand to the Indian market. This move is part of BSAs strategy to rekindle memories of its classic models while offering modern engineering.

Classic Legends’ co-founder Anupam Thareja has confirmed that the BSA brand might launch another variant of the Gold Star 650 later this year. This new variant could include features like LED lighting, digital screens, and connectivity, which are currently absent in the existing model. I think adding these features will definitely make the bike more appealing to modern riders.

Classic Legends is aiming to make each of its brands, including BSA, more distinguishable and iconic. The company plans to introduce other brands and sub-brands under BSA, hinting at a broader product lineup in the future. I think this strategy could help BSA regain its historical prominence.
