Kruger BSA

Brand Description

BSA was established in 1861 in Birmingham, England, initially as a manufacturer of firearms. The company diversified into the bicycle industry in the late 19th century and began producing motorcycles in 1910. BSA became one of the largest motorcycle manufacturers in the world during the mid-20th century, known for producing a wide range of models, including the popular BSA Gold Star. However, the company faced challenges in the 1970s, leading to its decline and eventual closure in the 1970s. The BSA brand has been revived in recent years, aiming to recapture its historic legacy.
