This new agreement encompasses Adult & Children's Outerwear, Sleepwear, Underwear, Socks and Headwear. The first t-shirt designs are expected to launch first half of 2024.
BSA (Birmingham Small Arms Company Ltd), was founded in 1861, for the production of firearms. The brand’s motorcycle division was set up in 1903, and the first motorcycle followed in 1910. The 1930s introduced the B31, Gold Flash and the Bantam. Later years delivered even more excellent machines with those evocative titles; Lightning, Rocket, Shooting Star, Spitfire, Gold Star, Firebird, Thunderbolts, Royal Star Starfire. BSA enjoyed great success and by 1951 had become the world's biggest motorcycle manufacturer. One in every four motorcycles sold worldwide was a BSA.
BSA Motorcycles was acquired in October 2016 by Classic Legends Pvt. Ltd, a subsidiary of the Mahindra Group. This iconic British motorcycle brand is now back and they return with the all new BSA Gold Star. A design icon of its era, redefined to reclaim its glory in the current times, the new BSA Gold Star’s design is a befitting evolution of BSA’s most successful motorcycle.
