The Gold Star returned to the BSA catalogue for the 1949 season having been announced at the end of 1948. Initially only offered with a 348cc capacity, it was joined later in the year by a 499cc version. The new Goldie, typed the B32GS was based on the B series machines. Unlike the more prosaic singles in the range the Goldie employed an all alloy engine which was installed in the plunger equipped frame as standard. A range of optional parts were available, allowing the rider to tailor the machine to their specific needs and interest, be that road use, trials, scrambles or racing. A pivoted fork frame was introduced for the 1953 season with machines so equipped adopting the title BB32 and the plunger framed model being typed the ZB32GS.
The ZB32 offered has been in the same family ownership since 1975. Offered in original condition the engine is described as "running" by the vendor with the transmission, electrical system and cycle parts all being "very good". The paintwork and brightwork are, according to the vendor, in good condition. It is offered with a Swansea V5C, original log book and the original engine performance sheet from the works.
