OK.
According to article, they intend to design and manufacture new BSA line in the UK.
If true, it's a good start.

If Mahindra bought ALL of the known BSA brands and assets, they ended up with THIS as a start...

Somebody (Wasp?) prototyped a new BSA a few years back.

Yes, I'm pretty sure that's a Wasp engine.

There's not a snowball in hells chance of that ever becoming a production bike !

Other than the seat, I think it's a presentable prototype.

I HOPE it doesn't end up with inverted forks and cast wheels...
