Editing BSA B34

The successor the [[BSA B32]] and the final engine size for the [[BSA]] '''Gold Star'''.

The [[BSA B32]] 350 is joined by a 499cc B34 version, which uses a different design of main bearing and a revised crankshaft, but which mirrored the 350's overall ethos.

Sold in the U.S.A. for [[trail motorcycle|trail]] or [[enduro]] use, the Alloy Clipper is often mistaken for a Gold Star, but is an export version of the B34 observed [[trials motorcycle]].  The allow cylinder and cylinder head are of the small fin style from the earlier ZB model, used to reduce weight.  The modest power that this [[motor]] produces doesn't require a lot of cooling fins.
