BSA Gold Star - what you need to know??
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2024
- A ride on the GS to understand who is buying this bike and why it is so good. It's at a great price bracket and allows one to own the bike rather than PCP a bike that pushes your budget.
Is this the bike for you?
Equipment Used in the Vlog:
DJI Osmo Action 4: amzn.to/48bnSXR

It would be a boring old world if we all liked and bought the same thing. If you like it then get it simples
Hey Richard; There's another British man's channel "Mindful Motorcyclist" who loves his BSA like you do. They are beginning to grow on me too, but we haven't any in the U.S. yet. Have a great day.! CHEERS!! Illinois,USA
Hey Larry, yes, he has now buggered off to Spain. Bloody infidel 😆. I was hoping to get together with him to make a video but alas, that won't happen in the short term I guess. You have a great day too 👍
Probably the best review I have seen on the BSA.
I currently own a interceptor. I like it a lot.
But I want the BSA Goldstar. Why??
I think it's the beautiful view over the bars, the gorgeous sound of a big single. .I recently sold a Ariel 500cc Red Hunter that I had from school years, I'm retired now. So I had many days.
I miss the big single 😪
Peter, do not waste any time. Gop get one if funds are available. Get one now, they are lovely. And thanks for the compliment on the review. That is good to know from my perspective.
Hi Richard, another great video from you sir. I just love your laid back approach to the video content and life in general. Keep them coming. Ride safe!
Thanks Sky, after what I have seen in life, being laid back is the view moving forward to my old fart years 😆
You can't really compare a twin or a four to a single, there different animals. Before buying my GoldStar i tried the Interceptor and loved it but then i tried the BSA and fell for the big thumper and it's character and I've never been disappointed. I really also like the W800 and the T100 both more expensive by a few thousands. If i was to change my GoldStar and I've no plans to do so i would choose the W800 again for its character and its authenticity.
Completely agree Ian, and the W800 with its geared cam drive is quite unique for todays way. I love the BSA, what a great thumper that does not act like one 😆
Riding motorcycles from 1970 first bsa was a three month old A65L loved it in recent yrs have owned two of the new bonnevilles great bikes got a second hand goldstar with 1000 miles on it younger rider got it discovered it wasn't his thing and yes its all different now when i started riding there where about fifty of us from fizzy ss50 up to triumph bonnevilles honda fours we all went on runs together didn't matter what you had now days its what you say alot of running each others choice down i also have a yamaha tricity 300 due to back problems the s..t i take about that is bad don't think it will be any different now but i love the goldstar and your great videos
Hi Gary, thanks for the story. Thanks for the compliment ❤
Great video & well explained
Thanks Michael for the feedback 😄
Great unbiased video, I own an interceptor but would love the shadow model in the garage aswell 👍🇬🇧🏍🙂
Hi Kenneth, you should consider doubling up on the bike scene 😆, as I say, you can't take the money with you 👍
Well Done BP, I love the way you go about explaining the differences, no two bikes are the same, each bike for a different day, thank you again Richard for sharing your bikes and their differences with us definitely see you soon Ted NW Biker (Bay Bimbler)
Thanks Ted, much appreciated. Like you say, see you soon 👍
He's got no time to wait for you?...You were doing 50 in a 60 mate. What's the matter with you?
That's what being in a hurry does , makes you look silly.
the big singles (preunits) hark back to the fifties not the sixties. the enfield is more a unit style from the sixties
Well done Richard and well said 😊😊
Yes it’s a very contentious issue with people but the BSA is a lovely bike as is the interceptor etc but as you say we all like different things as you say
Love the video
Phil
Thanks Phil 👍
It looks like used prices are coming down as there are 9 bikes at or below £5k on Autotrader today. The new lower starting price of £5,999 for the shadow black and highland green versions has definitely affected used values.
Hi Jerry, you are right. I have just had a look on AT Bikes and the prices are sub 5k. Interesting. That said, I thought the Gold Star was a little over priced and then the Black Shadow at 6k was released. This sort of brought it into the right place in the market space and furthermore, I am sure I have seen a special offer on a brand new for £5600. Now, £5600 is a great price 👍
Says it all. Great 👍
Thanks Brian 👍
You must be from Liverpool, you sound like a Beatle
