The BSA Rocket Gold Star was a Birmingham Small Arms Company (BSA) motorcycle that marked the final stage of development of the A10 twins. With a specially tuned A10 Super Rocket engine in the well proven Gold Star single frame, BSA created a very fast bike (for the time) with good handling fast bike that became 'classic'. Surviving models are in such demand today that 'fakes' (using Super Rocket parts) are sold as originals.
