If you've been following the story of the BSA Company revival in the past few years, chances are excellent that you may have a few unanswered questions. While new BSA Gold Star 650 motorcycles have been trickling out to customers in the UK and select other European markets, whatever happened to the plans for a UK factory?
We'll get there in a second, but first, here's a teensy bit of necessary history. As you may recall, the Mahindra and Mahindra-owned Classic Legends acquired BSA all the way back in 2016. If you like to follow vintage motorcycle marques that come back from the dead like we do, you may recognize that Classic Legends is also the parent company of Jawa and Yezdi. Yezdi bikes are sold in India; while Jawas are primarily also sold there, the brand is also currently exported to Europe.
