Those of you who have been keeping tabs on BSA know that the company’s now in good hands; just a handful of years ago, Mahindra acquired a 60% stake in BSA for a cool £3.4 million ($5.4 million USD).
As of 2021, Mahindra’s promise was that BSA would remain unaltered – and today, that statement has evolved into pretties like BSA’s Gold Star.
Coverage from RideApart cites that this beginner-friendly classic motorbike now touts a new color scheme for the new year, with “Shadow Black” sporting a glossy black tank (split by a grey middle stripe), fenders, and side panel situ.
Based on what we can see of the thing, BSA’s chosen a matte black for most of the other bits; that means a very nice, sotto voce vibe for the pipe and liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine.
Both of the above pop against the brushed aluminum vibes of the engine’s casing, fender joints, and dual rear shocks.
Naturally, BSA’s royalty-red logo continues to adorn the fuel tank, and we continue to see similar specs for this beauty as last year; should you want one of these bikes for yourself, you’ll be getting 652cc of power, translating to roughly 45hp @ 6500rpm, with 55Nm of yank available @ 4000rpm.
