BSA makes its India entry with the ‘gold standard’ of British motorcycle engineering, the iconic Gold Star.

Now, it’s set to captivate Indian motorcycling enthusiasts. BSA is also ready to enter the US, Australia, and Japan soon after.
Speaking at the occasion, Mr Anand Mahindra, Chairman, Mahindra Group said, "Bringing BSA to India is about sharing a piece of world motorcycling history with India. That indomitable spirit of BSA, a brand built in the fires of battle, is imbued in the new Gold Star that I hope all of you have a chance to experience."
