There's a rumour that BSA will launch a new model at Motorcycle Live called Bantam.
So it's almost a DKW relaunch

Re: What brand would you bring back?
I wouldn't. What's the point of a name on a tank when it's a different firm, different country, producing something totally unrelated to anything else that came from the former factory? I'm particularly not a fan of kitsch retros using model names stolen from bikes that set records at Daytona, Bonneville etc. Set your own records, make your own history, if you're making good bikes let those speak for you.

Re: What brand would you bring back?
I'm pretty much with that ^
Unless it's producing them from the old molds for engines and so on.
Maico did some of that and I'm ok with the way they did it but the modern Norton was taking the piss IMO.
