When it was listed at Iconic, they didnt say it was a factory bike.
Now the claim is that it is?
Also the claim if it being in amazing shape, but the iconic pictures were more "as raced" _________________ Bimota (Tesi 1D 904SR, DB2, DB4, SB6,SB6R, SB8R, SB8K Santa Monica) Ducati (1000SS, Monster S4, 999R) Aprilia (RSV Mille R Haga) Honda (CL125s and 70s Chopper) |

Having sold my SB8R to Adam way before he opened Iconic I can tell you he’s a straight shooter. Dealing with high profile clients on both sides of the isle he is very mindful of his reputation.
You can always email your questions to Iconic. _________________ 1991 Bimota YB10

Adam does seem like an honest guy. Talked to him a couple of times on bikes.
He also seems to be able to get AMAZING prices for stuff via Iconic.
Must have a line of "money no object" buyers out there.
The BB1 is now being offered by a restoration shop, and not through Iconic. _________________ Bimota (Tesi 1D 904SR, DB2, DB4, SB6,SB6R, SB8R, SB8K Santa Monica) Ducati (1000SS, Monster S4, 999R) Aprilia (RSV Mille R Haga) Honda (CL125s and 70s Chopper) |

Hi folks, although I don’t know the bike personally I do however know the owner Paul Murphy. To say that his skills and bikes are beyond perfection, in my opinion is a gross understatement. He currently has his absolutely pristine SB2 on display in the Peterson Automotive Museum in Los Angeles in the Silver Shotgun exhibition. When I first met Paul in Rimini for the 2006 Motogiro d’Italia event that year (me on my SB7), I had the opportunity to have a quick ride on his superbly prepared SB4. I certainly wouldn’t either doubt his credentials or hesitate buying a bike from him. |

I realize that. My suggestion was to follow up with your questions to Adam to see what he knew about the bike... _________________ 1991 Bimota YB10

Adam and Abhi are partners in Iconic. Met each one before iconic came to be. Iconic was Adam’s creation, Abhi came on board after Iconic set up shop on West side _________________ 1991 Bimota YB10
