givemethekeys.com sponsored Matt Bond, a promising 18 year old, in the MRO MiniTwins series for 2005. Having supplied two race prepared SV650 machines for Matt to use they also decided to promote their involvement in the series by lending a MiniTwins spec. Cagiva Raptor 650 to Mike 'Spike' Edwards (ex-British 600 Champion) for a one off ride at the Silverstone MRO round.
Mike convincingly won two races and was beaten by just 0.006 seconds in the third. Mike and the team weren't too disheartened as it was team mate Matt Bond who beat him on the way to taking the lap record. Matt went on to win the next nine MRO races and has also taken the lap record at each of the four circuits he has subsequently visited.
To celebrate givemethekeys.com has come up with a plan to give away the Cagiva Raptor 650 that Mike rode at Silverstone. As well as the bike givemethekeys.com will also be giving away spare wheels and discs, race entries for one of the MiniTwins series and enough tyres for the season, well, 5 fronts and 10 rears plus a pair of wets which should be enough for most riders.
With Ohlins suspension all round, upside down forks, four pot Brembo callipers, fully floating wavy discs and GPR steering damper this is easily the highest specification machine in the series.
