The HRD Industries, which now have well deserved an honorary for being a part of motorsport history, were created by British broker Howard Raymond Davis in 1924, whose initials can easily be spotted in the company’s “indiscreet” name.
From the very beginning, HRD Industries has focused on the production of dynamic motorcycles. Between 1926 and 1948, the company’s motorcycles were produced under the double emblem of Vincent-HRD placed on a gas tank and this period of time became one of the most glorious and fateful in the history of the brand.
Nowadays motorcycles hard enduro and supermotard are the leaders of the HRD Industries’ production line. They have a standard base and differ in wheel diameters, braking systems, and engines.
