On 28 th May, Yamaha celebrated its 50 th year of grand prix racing with dealers across the UK holding a special open day to mark the occasion. Thousands of hopeful motorcyclists entered a competition on the day to win the top prize of a brand new YZF-R1 plus VIP passes to the British MotoGP last weekend.
The lucky recipient of the R1 with its stunning one-off 50 th anniversary paintwork (courtesy of Altamura Concepts) was Karen Oades of Plymouth, who entered the competition at local Yamaha dealer, Damerells.
As well as winning the stunning R1, replete with Akropovic exhausts, Karen and partner Brett, were also treated to hospitality with the factory Yamaha MotoGP team at the event.
