NSR vs VFR – Who wins?
Clash of the grey import titans now as two classic HRC sports bikes go head to head.
GREY IMPORTS; just that phrase has the power to make bikers of a certain age go week at the knees!
And here we have two of the most iconic of Honda’s grey import offerings going head to head in a drag race. Let’s take a look at the contenders!
