Price and specifications of the BSA Gold Star and RE Interceptor 650 are compared.
The fundamental distinction between the two motorcycles is this. The Gold Star features a single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine, whereas the Interceptor 650 has a twin-cylinder, air/oil-cooled engine. The BSA generates greater torque than the Royal Enfield, even though the former has marginally higher power. It's important to note that, in comparison to the Royal Enfield, the BSA Gold Star reaches its peak power and torque slightly earlier in the rev range. The BSA Goldstar weights 201kg, while the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 weighs 17kg more. With a somewhat shorter wheelbase and a notably higher seat height of 804mm, the Interceptor might be less user-friendly for riders who are shorter in stature. It boasts a longer range thanks to its slightly bigger fuel tank (1.7 liters extra). Although the suspension systems on the two motorcycles are identical, it is unclear how well the Gold Star setup will function on our roads. The Gold Star has a little larger rear disc than the other bikes, but the front discs are of comparable size. This, along with its reduced weight, gives the Gold Star greater stopping power. The front wheels of both bikes are of a comparable size, but the Gold Star has a 17-inch wheel and more possibilities for tire size than the Interceptor 650. The Goldstar starts at Rs 3 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) but, depending on the color you select, can go up to Rs 3.35 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).…
