I hope they're not!  old Brit bikes have great charm, but were killed off by
the Japanese competition because they were (with very few honourable
exceptions) slow, unreliable and leaked oil incessantly.  It was their
refusal to improve in the face of competition which caused it.  Not quite
the comparison one might hope for.
