Britain's got biking talent winner ridden

The Carole Nash ‘Britain’s Got Biking Talent’ competition that MCN ran last year pulled in over 4500 examples of specials and restored classics. Michael Neeves tried out the winning 170bhp Kawasaki ZRX1200 special and can confirm it’s as much about ‘go’ as show.

The winner was announced at the Carole Nash stand at the NEC Show after thousands of motorcycles were uploaded to a special section of Rate My Bike on this site. 

Your votes helped our celebrity judges to whittle the list down to just 50 short-listed bikes, and from the final 50, motorcyclenews.com users selected the top twelve to be featured in the 2008 Carole Nash calendar.
