I would love a 1996 rgv250 sp.10.000 to 15.000£ The RC45 these wasn’t cheap 40.000 to 50.000£ last time I checked. On further inspection the gsxr is on the change over so at least 91 92. The 88 89 didn’t have usd forks this one gsxr 750 slingshot with twin round head light it definitely has the wrong forks and it should be either 88 89. A 2001 R1 could not out run it on uk roads don’t ask me how I know.

Our UK partner bought them, not us and most of the bikes need mechanical attention before reselling. The buyer fees are 7% but sometimes that doesnt even come to fruition. The goad is to get more people on bikes and that's why many are sold at breakeven or a loss, especially if you look at what it costs to get them back on the road. Don't get me wrong, some are profitable but that's how business stay afloat. I didn't buy my jeep from the factory, I went to a dealer. We're happy to help people that find bikes on their own with transport, service, paperwork or restorations...just be careful as there are a lot of scams out there these days

A client asked us to put it in our container. I believe it has some significance to him as it made no sense to me either.

Great to see some iconic bikes, shame they're leaving blighty. Weird that we import knackered old shonkers from the the US to do up and the US imports ready to ride classics from the UK

If they have Kms on them they are not UK bikes ! UK use mph, they could be imported but that's unlikely unless it is a 400.

Correct - the container came to us from the UK but the owner of these bikes presumably sourced them from all over.

HEY ICONIC!!!! I found a 1994 FZR 1000 in England 6 mos ago that was in perfect shape and reasonably priced. I tried everything to get it shipped here to Georgia. Everyone I talked to, including Iconic, acted as if I was trying to move heaven and earth to have the bike shipped to me. Now, here they are with a massive load of bikes. WTF!!!!!! Can someone please help me? Im trying to replace my beloved 94 FZR 1000 that was taken from me by a drunk idiot driver in 2005.

It's just really pricey when it's a single bike as it has to go LCL. 4 of the bikes on this container are for other customers and we just charged a small portion of the entire cost to the clients with a small fee. We won't be bringing any more in for a while though as we have other priorities. Email our transport dept but as long as it's 25 years old, it's not that hard, just adds up cost wise

I hear ya! I have a 90 FZR 1k (with an 06 R1 motor) and love how she looks, too. Sorry to hear about your 94, but glad you're ABLE to hunt for another.
