A Suzuki Hayabusa with a £25,000 face lift was crowned Best in Show in October’s Show and Shine competition at MCN Live! with Carole Nash in Skegness at the weekend.Dave Smith from Nottingham beat off strong competition to take not only the Best Sports Bike gong but also was awarded the accolade of Best in Show with his Suzuki Hayabusa. The 47-year-old from Nottingham has spent £25,000 to get his customised paint scheme, yokes, seat, wheels – imported from America - and swing arm. Smith was in the army and this can be seen throughout the bike, including the reinforced 50 calibre World War Two bullets which replace the original foot pegs.“I’ve only had this for two years but it’s been five years in the making getting parts for my old Hayabusa that I’ve now brought on to this one. I ride it everywhere, it wasn’t built for shows it was built to ride, but I’m pleased when I get recognition.”
