Is BSA coming back?? Sure looks like an Indian firm bought out BSA and plans to build them in the UK.

YIPPEE!!

I had a 1969 650 Firebird Scrambler that I wish I never sold. I wonder what these bikes will look like?

I read this and thought it was the US Motorcycle Manufacturer 'Indian' - only when I clicked on the link and saw picture of the guy and his name was Rajesh Jejurikar, President and Chief Executive of Mahindra's Farm Equipment and Two Wheeler division that I realized my mistake!
Wrong Indians!!! :D
 
Are these the same Indians that now build the Royal Enfield?
 
No, that is Eicher Motors

Incidentally one of my first bikes as an early teen (pre-license) was an ex-military 350 Enfield Bullet (followed by 3 Triumphs :D )

Sounds like an interesting idea. Hopefully they can stay true to the old ways, just better reliabaility, I like that idea.
