                  This bike capable of performing well off road
                  BSA B65 Scrambler is one of the best bikes in the 650cc lineup. The robust and strong looks, 19-17 inch spoke wheels and Pirelli tyres make this bike capable of performing well off road. The 650cc power from the engine feels quite strong, and the raised mudguard also enhances its adventure-oriented look. Priced slightly higher than the Goldstar 650, this bike seems to be the perfect choice for those who are more stylistic in their riding game. Can't wait to see how it rides.
