Actually, I really like the Enfield and really want one. Unfortunately, I have nearly zero mechanical skills. Which, I've heard, comes in handy with an Enfield.

I saw a Royal Enfield today and damn if that bike wasn't cool as hell! I walked across the parking lot thinking I was going to find an old BSA; Triumph, whatever, but it was a fairly new twin. The owner had put some period stuff on it like the number plate on the front fender; some brass or bronze and copper fittings on the tank, etc. I want one too!

Well, it's not the first time I didn't know what the hell I was talking about, and I'm damn sure it won't be the last. Wonder what the heck it was...

It's just possible that you saw a Royal Enfield 750 twin. They were produced into the 60s.
