mmm that's a positive response.
If I remember rightly there was an article on Todotrial about a year ago where someone was planning to resurrect the Ossa marque. Good luck to them.

I can't say it's the case here but a lot of the time the rights to the name is sold off as happened with a few of the old British names from back in the day. Someone may have the right to use the name and have built a bike, the bikes that were built back then and now are really nothing to do with each other except in name.
OT slightly but if you look carefully at todays Triumph logo it is slightly different to the old school Triumph logo. Also there is a Norton being produced at present........ it looks like a latter day Commando if you are about 100 yards away, but hey it's a Norton.

Nope wrong, you are getting Baldilocks confused with Roger Holden (Cliff's son).
Baldilocks is from the North East like!
