Probably the most sought after models produced by BSA are the Gold Star range of 350 and 500cc singles and the rare Rocket Gold Star 650cc twin of the late 50s early 60s. This classic 1958 DBD34 was tested at the factory on the 24th April 1958 and despatched to dealers Comerfords of Thames Ditton on the 8th May, being first registered for the road a couple of weeks later, built to Clubman specification, fitted with an Amal GP carburettor
The 500 cc DBD34 was introduced in 1956, with clip-on handlebars, the same big finned alloy engine with a newly designed head,38 mm ( 1 1/2" ) bell-mouth Amal carburettor and swept-back exhaust. The DBD34 had a 110 mph (180 km/h) top speed. The Gold Star dominated the Isle of Man Clubmans TT that year. Later models had an ultra close-ratio gearbox (RRT2) with a very high first gear, enabling 60 mph (97 km/h) before changing up to a second. Amongst the options available were a tachometer and a 190mm full-width front brake that gave a larger lining area than the standard 8" single-sided unit

Was just in for its first big tune up since I got it in 2007. Now it is fast again! Since I'm putting over 100km a month on it just for commuting to work, fast is good. Nevermind the 46km rides that hopefully will be common this summer.

The Kawasaki H2 Mach IV is a 750 cc 3-cylinder two-stroke production motorcycle, introduced in 1971.The H2 engine was a 3-cylinder two-stroke with an engine displacement of 748 cc and 74hp, making it the fastest accelerating motorcycle in production The 1973 H2 came with a single front disc brake, a second disc brake was an optional. Engine modification for 1973, to decrease led to a slight fall-of in power and in 1974 the H2B engine was modified for more civilized performance at the expense of raw power
Leaving this 1972 model as the quickest of the breed.
