BSA Motorcycles is back and is set to reveal its first new model in decades on December 4 (Spoiler: this classic Rocket 3 isn't it)BSA Motorcycles VIEW 2 IMAGES
One of the world’s leading motorcycle manufacturers of the 1950s and 60s, BSA is set to resume operations almost half a century after it went bankrupt, funded by its new owner, India’s Mahindra & Mahindra, and with a new factory under construction in England.
BSA Motorcycles Ltd. broke the news with the first ever tweet in its brand new Twitter account: “Return of a Legend. #BSAisBack. We’ve evolved, but our DNA remains unaltered.” The short supporting video features a sequence of emblems from BSA’s long history, ending with the familiar red logo that leads its revival.

I don’t know much about motorcycles - hopefully it won’t run like a tractor.

I nearly put a 67 BSA lightning through the back wall of a garage once. Darn shifter and brake got switched around somehow. :)

Beezers and Triumphs were different nameplates on the same bikes it seemed to me.

BSA-Nortons-Triumphs-Villiers were all owned under the same umbrella. Then after bankruptcy the brands were sold off again..............

I had Lucas electrics in my old Mk2 Jaguar. They were about the only thing that worked on that car.

A saw a Royal Enfield a couple of months ago. Also made in India. Not by Mahindra, though.
Mahindra advertised on the Rush Limbaugh show some time during the last few years, IIRC.

Sounds to me like a VERY big change in DNA.

Yes, they sell small tractors all over the place...................
