Motorbiking enthusiast Keith Grainger has won his dream machine in a nationwide competition.
He received the brand new £10,000 Yamaha R1 motorbike from Keighley main dealer Colin Appleyard last Friday.
Keith, 42, from Utley, won the machine in a contest organised by Motorcycle News magazine.
He told us: "Motorbikes have always been my major hobby. I had to sell my last one about a year ago. I was hoping to get another at some point and if I could have chosen any it would have been this one. I am over the moon."
Keith, a partner in a company selling private health care, gave the bike its first major test on Sunday when he rode it to Windermere in the Lake District. "It was absolutely brilliant," he says.
