BSA gold star motorcycle pictures,...The Gold Star was a motorcycle made by BSA from 1938–1963. They were 350 cc and 500 cc single-cylinder 4-stroke production motorcycle known for being among the fastest bikes of the 1950s. They were hand built, with many optional performance modifications available, and came from the factory with documented dynamometer test results, allowing the new owner to see the horsepower produced.
In 1937, Wal L. Handley lapped Brooklands at over 100 mph (160 km/h) on a BSA Empire Star, and was awarded one of the traditional Gold Star pins for the feat. That inspired BSA to produce the BSA Gold Star.The first Gold Star was an M24. It had an alloy 496 cc engine, an Electron alloy gearbox, and a light tube frame devoid of side-car lugs. This model continued up till the War.
