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
