With the exception of the big Triumphs* ... I think that the old names should have just been left to die gracefully ...milking a once great name by selling it to be stuck on inferior machinery is horribly cynical ... I hope that should Morgan eventually succumb to modern economics that the badge doesn't end up on some cheap far-eastern electric carbuncle .... however once the asset-stripping vultures get stuck in I dout they'll resist a few grand for someone else's prized legacy.
*These are still fully designed and still somewhat of their range UK built ....their offshore productuon is a sad fact of commercial life, but the bikes remain directly true to the UK production .... the new smaller capacity range made in India, however, just look like generic Chinese runabouts tarted up and bearing a badge they can't carry off... I'm sure they're perfectly competent, but Triumphs they're not*
*my personal view ... other viewpoints are available*
* but wrong! 😆

PS .... that Brough is a proper dog's breakfast of a thing!
