    Dang, James.......bummer about the carbs. That's some lost value there - on top of everything else!

    Hope things work out on whatever you decide to do, my friend.

    That's not fair mate. Just reach out to Concierge@iconicmotorbikes.com and we'll jump on it. I'll speak to Matt as well as that's not the way we do things here. We list projects and many times don't make money off them but I mean it when I say that every bike is iconic to someone. If we only cater to the $30K plus buyers than we have failed so give us a chance to make this right. Thanks again for the purchase -Adam

    Careful on these forums Adam, we will eat you alive. JK...maybe :)

    I have had great experiences with Iconic and I recommend them anytime people ask how I got or where I sold a bike. Adam and Abhi have gone above and beyond helping me. I like to think they try and treat all bikes with the same care and concerns.

    For transpo, I have seen some less than desirable versions, but I think that has more to do with long haul vs inter-Kali. I would say they are not big enough to transpo by kick ass van across the country yet.

    I hope they make it right (which I am sure they will do) and I hope you get your VFRs regged.

    My 2c

    Agreed. Everything I have heard prior to this is positive. While this was a MAJOR oversight, it is not insurmountable in one way or another.

    If they joined a forum to address an issue, that is a serious move in the right direction showing they are committed. Repercussions are tangible.

    Plus, we know they love VFRs, so hell yeah. I think the cross-pollination in a real forum is good.

    Post Script: I've been having some Shiner Bock while stirring my Texas Smoked Brisket Chili for a competition so I may be a little gabby too.

    Abhi recently posted a FB ride video of a test ride on an RC26 they had in the shop for repairs. Man he rode that thing like a champ! Steve (The Professor) had done the tuning on it and it had Supertrap mufflers and sounded killer. Steve knows his bidness on the carbs!

    Dang I don't have any red VFRs, now I have to get one!

    I heard back from Matt, he is going to see if they can get a duplicate CA title from the previous owner. Fingers crossed!
