In a special Navratri initiative, BSA Motorcycles is extending a celebratory offer to the first 500 customers who purchase its flagship Gold Star 650 model. This promotion allows buyers to acquire the motorcycle at its original pre-GST 2.0 price point, with BSA absorbing the recent tax increase. Additionally, each of these customers will receive an exclusive 'Goldie kit', a curated collection of accessories designed to enhance the riding experience.

The recent GST revision, effective from late September 2025, raised the tax levy on motorcycles with engine capacities exceeding 350 cc from 28 to 40 percent. While this has led to price adjustments across the premium motorcycle segment, BSA's limited-time offer ensures that enthusiasts can avoid this additional cost. The Gold Star will be available at ex-showroom Delhi prices starting from INR 309,990 for the Highland Green and Insignia Red variants, with other colour options like Shadow Black and Legacy Sheen Silver priced up to INR 344,990.

The complimentary accessory kit, valued at INR 5,900, includes practical and stylish components such as a tall touring windscreen, a pillion backrest, a metal exhaust shield and a rear rail. This package adds both purpose and aesthetic appeal to the motorcycle, which is already celebrated for its authentic British design heritage. The Gold Star features classic cues like a rounded fuel tank with the iconic BSA badge, polished metal accents and a timeless café racer silhouette, all complemented by modern elements including LED lighting and wire-spoke wheels.

At the heart of the Gold Star is a refined 652 cc single-cylinder engine that produces 45 horsepower and 55 Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed gearbox. Its engineering prioritises a smooth and confident ride, supported by features like dual-channel ABS, a double-cradle chassis and premium suspension. For prospective buyers, attractive finance options are available, including interest rates starting from 5.99 percent, a zero down payment plan and loan tenures of up to six years.

Ownership is further supported by the Jawa Yezdi BSA Ownership Assurance Programme, which provides a standard four-year or 50,000-kilometre warranty, with options to extend coverage. This commitment, backed by a network of over 400 sales and service touchpoints, underscores the brand's dedication to its community of motorcycling purists. This festive offer is designed not just as a purchase incentive but as a tribute to those who see the open road as a place of belonging.

Sharad Agarwal, Chief Business Officer, Classic Legends, said, “The BSA Gold Star has garnered a loyal following since its launch in India, redefining motorcycling as a lifestyle rather than just a mode of transport. By holding our prices steady post-GST 2.0 for our first 500 buyers and pairing it with our festive initiative, we invite more enthusiasts to embrace this lifestyle without compromise.”
