I did consider buying one of those as my first bike, they look good and are extremely cheap.
The only thing that put me off was the power, or lack of.
Yup they certainly have (or don't have) that, wouldn't recommend one as your only bike unless your not interested in getting anywhere quickly! Would make a great commuter 10/20 miles as easy to chuck about, low weight & seat, comfortable and 75mpg wringing it's neck, 85mpg+ without trying too hard.
That's what I use mine for, wife loves it as pillion even though it only has a detachable pillion pad - she has a small bum! Also great for riding the back lanes in the muck and crap and is perfect for this time of year, it doesn't have much value to lose by not being cleaned very ride, ACF50 in October, the odd hose down during the Winter and a good clean & lubricate in the Spring - don't buy a used Enfield of this man ; )
This is what I've got so far... (and all subject to change)
1. BSA Gold Star DBD34
2. Norton Manx 500
3. Supercharged Vincent Black Lightning
4. Brough Superior SS100 Alpine Grand Sports
5. Kawasaki Z1300 Legendary Six
6. Africa V Twin (2016)
7. H2r
8. FS1E
9. 1950's Pre Unit T110
10. New Bonnie
...and if there's anything left from my lottery winnings a heated workshop !
Some I've had, some I have and some I want, and some I can't fit on - it's an ever changing list though ; )
