BSA Gold Star Motorcycle 1938–1963
What is your favourite motorcycle of all time?
Few clubman racers have enjoyed the success or reputation of the “Goldie”. The range was produced in trial, scramble, touring and racing versions. The 500cc engine developed up to 40bhp at just over 7000rpm through a close ration gearbox. Top speed was around 110mph in full clubman trim. Most coveted of all the “Goldies” was the 499cc model DBD 34.
