I am trying to look at that Royal Enfeild but my eyes keep straying to the GT750.

I didn't look this up, but from what I recall, Royal Enfield (the UK manufacturer) went bung in the 1960s, along with most of the rest of the Brit industry.* As they went down the gurgler though, they sold some of their tooling to an Indian company which used the name Enfield.

From the 'Daily Mail Motorcycle and Scooter Guide 1959'. Sixty years on a few of those bikes still manage to look sweet.

There is a good reason for that, by the end of the war which is ancient history all the British equipment was worn out. The best they could do post war was make pre war things with a bit of bling on them.
ET went to Japan in early 60's as stated if the Japanese stick to sub 500's its ok, otherwise game over.
The US had a large amount of Motorcycle manufacturers at one point...think it was just prior to Ford bringing out the game changing Model T.
We are waiting for a new electric T but its not coming very quickly.

DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.
Older styling variant on the Enfield V twin theme :http://www.musketvtwin.com/news

Bugger some of that "Older styling" thing. Comfortable seats and good suspension were not developed because the old stuff was as good as it could be.
I wonder if buyers also give up other modern things and start crapping in the street and looking forward to a dose of good old fashioned Typhoid.
