Good review, everything well said 🙂 You were talking about who would buy them, I'm 65 and believe it or not gold stars are before my time. I think most people who dreamt of owning back in the day would be in their mid to late 70's by now 😲🤔

@daveg.4772 Год назад

I'm 66 and have owned more than a half-dozen BSA unit singles including a Rickman B50. I'm a little too young to remember Gold Stars in the show rooms, but the 441 Victor was still around (just) when I was in high school and I wanted one. Having said all that, I'm a thumper guy. I love big 4-stroke singles and road my SR500 Yamaha for too many years. But at this age, kicking over a big 4-stroke is not as "fun" as it once was. So I'll buy one of these new Gold Stars as soon as they open a dealership in Texas.

@kretonslovechild7999 Год назад

I'm also 65 and started on a '68 Yamaha 125 scrambler in 1970 just as Japanese bikes were eclipsing British ones. I do remember a few older guys with BSA singles, but they always seemed to be trying to get them to run rather than riding them. Still, I really lusted after them, especially the 441 Victor. While I agree with Maria that retro classics like the the Gold Star appeal almost exclusively to older guys, they make sense for that demo in more ways that just their looks. Many older riders find the big, powerful, and heavy bikes they once enjoyed too much to handle but they still want something reasonably quick that's also versatile and that's where these bikes can fit the bill.

I had a 2005 BMW F650 cs that had the 652cc rotax engine in it. (the BSA engine is a copy of that Rotax). It had 50 HP and made monster torque. Pulling mountains and had major roll on power when passing trucks on the freeway was effortless. Never had to switch out of 5th gear. I could cruise at 95MPH. Don't worry about this engine, it is golden. If you get the pun?

@mldiode 2 года назад

I’d love to try one. The radiator needs to be streamlined as the current one looks like it came off a Ford model T. The issue with bikes in this price point is the dealers tack on fees that make buying one prohibitive. Here in the U.S. say there’s a bike with a MSRP of 4500. By the time the dealer tacks on fees n such you’re looking at 6000-7000. This leads me to the used private seller market.

@terenceokeeffesmotorcyclestuff 2 года назад

To avoid this confusion prices In the UK are usually quoted as “On The Road” which leaves no doubt as to how much the vehicle will cost out the door. If it is to be financed there can be zero ambiguity on the total price paid and how much was the bike price and how much is interest. No need to visit a dealer to get a known price for a bike you might fancy.

It's great to watch another perspective on the bike. Some reviewers (of the sport bike flavor) are sort panning the bike, possibly being too critical. Meanwhile less 'serious' riders can find a lot of pleasure in bikes that, simply, provide pleasure (note here response to the aesthetics of the front). I myself do look for higher performing bikes, but I try keep in mind that different riders have different priorities. 👍

I bought a new 441 Victor in 1970, rode it for a year, and loved it. I still have one and putt about occasionally and still like it. But this new thing called a "Goldstar," is a Goldie in name only. A radiator? Come on guys, why not buy a W800, a really good retro bike, one that's already proven itself, even though it is a twin and not a big single?

@jeremykeller211 2 года назад

The DBD 34 enshrined the Gold Stat name. It's success was due to three factors: 1) strong, tractable motor, 2) low weight--well under 400 pounds, 3) an excellent frame, almost the equal of the featherbed. How does the new one compare? 1) excellent, 2) dismal failure--ca. 100 pounds too heavy, 3) unknown, but obviously compromised by 2). It is difficult to believe that a motorcyclist was part of the design team. It's not a Gold Star. It's a Gold Wing.

@frederickwoods5943 2 года назад

Very true. Too close to 500 pounds weight wise, a Speed Twin 1200cc weighs about the same; over twice the horsepower at less than twice the cost.

@tonygreenbank8611 2 года назад

All I'd say, the last time someone bought an old British brand name (Matchless) and put a Rotax engine in a swinging arm frame with a nice black tank with gold pin stripes. It failed sadly. Not that it was a bad bike (I've a mate who still runs one). It just wasn't a really good bike and didn't sell. It just didn't appeal, much like this modern day imposter for a Gold Star. Unlike the Enfield 650 twin, the bikes that it's based on was a very average British twin (I know I had one back in the day). However the modern bikes made by the Indian company that can trace it's heritage back to the birth of the British motorcycle industries 120 years ago. Have made a dammed good middle weight bike that wins out at a reasonable price.

Also run bike below 2.5L fuel sender can get stuck, it's got a piece of thin wire & when fuel low wire can bend only filling tank to 3/4 full & have to be replaced.Or it can stuck & won't register on fuel gauge,when this happens give hold brake in & jump up & down on front shocks this should shake it free.This happened on mates Interceptor when ran it low & only had 2liters left & I told him this & it worked.Same for all bikes,cars.So be filling up after 9L used which will be 220km on R.E650 single should be more economical but 1.7L less per tank so roughly the same.BMW 650 adv Rotax is same engine & will have economy stats.

You cannot in any way "pull away from a junction in top gear" on a DBD 34 ,it`s 4 speed box has a very tall first and you will be slipping that clutch for some considerable time in first. Many rose tinted myths about the Gold Star . In the right place at the right time she was sublime and very successful in competition but any one who buys one as a daily ride is going to be vexed by a GP carb and the close ratio box.

Sorry, Nortons not one bit English, owned by India, but just built in England, so will the BSA soon . Also when did ohlins and brembo become English on a Norton?

Why is the Indian version of this bike getting 90bhp and UK only getting 45bhp

Think it's to make it UK a2 license compatible, this way, they can sell it to almost anyone. It's restricted to 7000 revs, but goes up to 10,000 red line, so maybe more to come , or might even be a restricter you could remove?
