As a UK Gold Star owner since March 2023 and before that an Interceptor I can tell you the BSA is fantastic, ride one before you comment, you will be grinning from ear to ear. #HappyGoldStarOwner 👍
Classic legend is 2-3 years behind competition. Now the standards of market has been changed but I have to say it looks beautiful and such a big single is rare.
@@lutenic6111 Decade is too much BSA is more like 2 years behind It's a good motorcycle nonetheless but should've been priced lower to get on par with the interceptor
bike orgasm i felt when i took test ride, aahhhhh i am going to get its delivery , i have bought around 4 cars in my whole life but was never happier ..
Interceptor base vs BSA 650 base.. both come around 3.75+ on road.. so with interceptor u get 1 Twin cylinder. 2 slip and assist clutch. 3 Six speed gear unit. 4 vast service network. 5 proven engine. So in BSA whats does one get for same price ? Mahindra should have priced this atlest 40k cheaper than RE
Ohh bhai royal enfiled iski finishing ki braberi mhi kr skta…uts a premium bike..thats why the close the price …it is one of the best looking retro classic bike ever ….iske samne royal infiled dull dikhegi..

To be honest this bike looks expensive than RE 650s Finishing is great and looks classy👍 People who have a class and well standard will surely gonna consider this beautiful machine🙌🏻
While the Royal Enfield 650cc parallel twin is a buttery smooth, not sure what to expect from the single cylinder 650cc Goldstar. The BSA Goldstar seems 20 to 25 thousand rupees overpriced!

BSA should have added the tubeless rims or alloys which is neccessary for such a heavy bike and that too no centre stand can be added. If centre stand added outside it may damage the abs or some components which are added near the place where centre stand has to fix so . We cannot include it and no tubeless so definitely has a negitive impact on sales. I myself was taking backstep due the same reasons eventhough the bike looks very good. I feel the price is on the higher side compare to RE 650’s which are twins.
Many fools here arguing this cannot beat Re twins, yes it cannot they made it single cylinder for a purpose if it was a twin cylinder the production cost would've been much lesser the company even said it, they wanted a replica of the old single cylinders in modern specs that's why they created this I myself own a Classic 500 and previously used a gt 533 (which was my friends ) so single cylinder higher capacity motorcycle is a different feel only those who rode it know it.
Pricing is all wrong, trying to compete with the Royal Enfield 650cc parallel twin Interceptor available at around the same price. Koi nahin lega, Mojo jaise gayab ho jayegii yeh bhi.
A 650 cc single cylinder engine. Why I get this strange feeling that some of the buyers of this motorcycle will be of the category who put abnormally loud exhausts on their motorcycles to annoy other road users? It will be like that small bunch of annoying Bullet riders with obnoxiously loud aftermarket exhaust made louder and worse. The Interceptor is no doubt a bit loud too, but spreading out the engine capacity to two cylinders does keep the loudness in check, so even with aftermarket exhausts the sound of Interceptor isn't all out obnoxious. A 650 cc single cylinder engine on the other hand will sound straight up obnoxiously loud with aftermarket exhausts, and I can bet that a bunch of Indian motorcyclists will indeed put aftermarket exhausts on this thumper.
I would have gone for the bsa just to set myself apart from the shoal of RE 650's, there's just too many of them on our roads now and it has lost its novelty.
I think it's a mistake they should have gone for an air cooled unit to bring down the cost... they have pitted it against the wrong segment of the twin 650s...
This isn’t going anywhere. I wonder why companies want to bring back forgotten brands. Nobody will go for a retro bike unless it’s from RE. Something big would need to happen for these newer brands to stay relevant. Also, that instrument cluster looks bad.
Should have been atleast priced 20k -30k cheaper ! Many will tell who will give 650cc for 2.7L or 2.8L.. well RE had launched its 650 twins at around that price when launched. 2.99L just for looks.. may be worth it to some.. but a single cylinder would have much vibrations in high speed cruising. For few extra k's you can get a twin cylinder with much refined engine than a sigle cylinder..
I am very much skeptical about its success in INDIAN market..i dont think it can make a mark by putting a single in this segment where RE 650's are jugling with their more refined twins and ample amount of varieties with fresh colour schemes..

It'll be great for India. The liquid cooled engine and the torque will be the best for Indian road conditions. The quality looks great.

For comparison with Int. this looks way better and serious and solid. Will take this any day over Int.
