The lucky winner will be presented with their purchase by the man himself at the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca on the weekend July 23rd-25th, being invited on stage on Saturday evening to collect their autographed prize. The winning bidder will also enjoy the satisfaction of knowing they have helped raise important funds for Yamaha Motor Corporation's charity.
