I don’t know about this person new to this channel and I actually own a BSA Goldie done 1050kms recently and never felt problem or issue in day with digital display they r pretty good and rear suspension is true they r bouncy but manageable rest all whatever been said in this videos doesn’t makes sense to me…..Overall its a splendid bike 👍
There are reports (overseas) of the wiring harness failure and the bile stalling. I experienced this problem on my RE - bike had to be had to 'recovered' from WEH and RE replaced the entire harness (at my expense).
Can we have analysis like "RE Classic, too retro, is it useless?" Lets see whether Motorinc has guts to say this! Anyone who challenges RE in retro segment gets targeted by Motorinc for some or other reasons. Honda Hness/CB350, Jawa, TVS Ronin and now BSA.
The CB350 is a shameless copy of the classic 350 with their own modified engine for it, it doesn't even compare to the J-Series motorcycles from the Royal Enfield in terms of build quality. That bike is widely known for rust issues everywhere pretty soon after acquiring the motorcycle. The Jawas/Yezdis had quality control issues as well, such as flaking of the top layer from the blacked out engine(I faced this myself), rusting, and wiring issues. The service network isn't good either for the Jawas and Yezdis. The Ronin is terrible, I don't need to explain how its just a dogshit piece of engineering. It looks like 3 different bikes fused together to make one and it failed at that in every regard. BSA now has to make quality products, to separate itself from the legacy of the other Classic Legends bikes.
@@AcnologiaR why is ronin terrible? its smoother, better accelerating, better suspension, better seating , and better brakes. you realise these points when driving classic and ronin back to back for 50 kms. Looks are subjective .
Why I don’t recall Shumi being so loud and vocal about the suspension set up on Interceptor/GT-650 which just loves to wallow all the time. Show a few corners and the bike would fishtail like crazy.
I can understand why some feel the review might seem biased toward Royal Enfield, but I believe it’s actually highlighting valid points. Shumi and Kartikeya are emphasizing that, while retro-inspired designs have a unique appeal, motorcycles today should also be practical and thoughtfully designed for modern use. This includes being easy to service, eliminating design flaws using modern industrial design (like a non-lockable side panel), and ensuring the bike can handle the challenges of Indian roads. I’m doing my best to stay objective here, and I think Shumi and Kartikeya are aiming to be as fair and constructive as possible too.
Take a ride in BSA and Inty on Same day no offence but BSA is better in many ways not Jawa but this bike is pretty good I really love inty but BSA made good product and needs to be appreciated non lockable side panel is not something soooo important to ignore the overall product
motoeinc is just really showing their true colors recently cause if there is an RE badge on that bike he would have said so much about being an awesome retro and even they wouldnt have mentioned about heating cause most of the reviewers have said that the BSA 650 was almost better than a triumph scram 400x in terms of heating but these guys are saying so musch things like everything is bad. If it was an RE bike they would have said soo much good things about it
Very interesting… happy to view Ur contents in Ur channel… analytical and very informative but definitely lengthy… which actually makes mind to postpone viewing or make choice of contents for viewing… just a honest review… 🙏
Goldstar 500 of 1950s was a sports bike and now its just another commuter, the bike is really good with some flaws that are inherent when your designers and engineers are set in constraint to a design thats more than 60 years old.
Which bikes are good then? I have seen lot of your videos. I think is the bike that makes you feel liberated while riding is good. Hahaha. Which are the bikes you two own?They must be superbikes

I’ve been riding my Gold star for 45 days now and it’s been smooth so far!! On highways and in the city traffic, it’s more fun than my RE

no it is not useless because it sells now with the classic 650 in the market it proves that it has a market for being a basic simple bike that runs.

If it has RE batch its good retro
You mean Badge?
You just made RE bikes sound better.
It's Sidharth Lal fan club afterall
@@kimphilbi9109 Lol yes, so RE is just next to the absolute worst? 😂... He practically shammed RE

They pointed out what are the problems associated with that bike thats it,
Is shumi said anything wrong about seat or heating issue ?

video thumbnail extended for the first 3 seconds, i thought the screen froze :(
Kudos to Karthikeya for ensuring Shumi made no faux pas by stating that UK may be a Paradise where no thievery happens.🤣
I think "Classic Legends" are better at making failed products, fail again and fail badly than before.
Atleast they are trying with innovation but Indian market is still very price sensitive. They are doing fine in exports

Don’t be too quick to judge
@ i am not judging. I am asking them
Yamaha r15 - both recommended , Duke 390, Ducati multistrara- shumi owns , hero impulse - kartikeya owns
Kartikeya also owns Hayabusa. U guys are clearly new comers to this channel and so quick to judge them...
@@psumanta10 i did not judge them. Also how do you know i am a newcomer and dont knowv about them?
Even the initial Triumph Street Twin 2016 both side panels no lock system, just fix it...
Bro's gonna make the Porsche headlight removal tutorial tragedy repeat. I dont think so anyone knew that the side panel was removable.
BSA Gold Star resale values in UK have dropped steeply. Retro design backed by retro (British vintage?) quality.
New channel old me 😂
0:01 "mahiya say"
Cb350 or Re classic 350 or meteor 350
I love BSA Gold star
Its better than RE
what a disaster
This format 😢 😢😢😢
2024 and into 2025 and M&M launches a bike with bugs 🐞
