Never again. The service department charged full book rates (manufacturer time estimates * $109/hr) for over a dozen repairs - double-dipping on shop time for things like removing/replacing the fuel tank, fairing, plastics, etc…, telling me that if they didn’t use that time for the repair, they’d be using it for diagnosis. Adding insult to injury, after waiting 2 weeks for the repairs and then paying the > $2,500 bill, the bike wouldn’t start. As if that weren’t enough, my cramp-buster is missing, along with the contents of one of my fairing pockets (including my registration, proof of insurance and a pair clear Oakley’s for night riding). I’ve owned my Triumph for almost 2 decades and it’s been in a shop for > 1 week only twice – both times w/Sun&Fun, and I’ve been shocked by a repair bill only twice – both times w/Sun&Fun. After the first bad experience, the owner encouraged us to give them another try because they’d changed location and staff, but I was fooled twice (shame on me). Sun&Fun’s service department just used my bike to take me for a ride (and I don’t like to be taken), so there’s no doubt that it’s worth the drive to Des Moines or Dubuque for better and faster service at a fraction of the price.

Do NOT go here for service!!! Repair estimate included lots of unneeded work. My husbands bike was not ridden last year and would not start. We took it in and asked for an estimate of the least amount of work that could be done to get it running as we were planning to sell the bike. They charged us $86.66 for the estimate and quoted us $1175.80 to get it running, including a new battery, carb repair kit, carb insulator, etc. No way were we putting that much money into a bike we were planning on selling. Picked it up and found someone who worked on bikes independently. He drained the carburetor and ran fresh gas thru it x3, charged the battery, and it runs great now. Did they even check the battery to see if it needed replacing??? It held a charge and started fine for the 10 days after we got it running before we sold it. Did not need all the parts or major work that Sun and Fun wanted to charge us for. Extremely disappointed, will take my business elsewhere to someplace that does not add unnecessary repairs to the bill.

AVOID SHOP AT ALL COSTS!!!! I helped my brother in law take his bike here to get looked at. We had actually already replaced the clutch and were having a difficult time getting the clutch cover back on. Once they called us about what was wrong, (which took a couple weeks), they told us the transmission was shot and it would cost over $4,000 to fix. After that piece of news they then proceeded to tell us that we could give them the bike and they would call it square. We went to pick up the bike as soon as we could. When we showed up to get the bike we were told that they would need to get the fork lift to get the bike down from the second floor (pretty shady as the service center is on the ground floor). After getting it home and the bIke back together we found that they cut coolant lines and switched the rear tire out. From now on we will drive to Des Moines were you can actually trust the mechanics.

On August 7, 2013 I was returning from Sturgis SD and stayed overnight in Iowa City. On arriving at the motel that night, I discovered my right saddlebag lock was jammed. As I needed some meds that were in that bag and had no tools to work on the problem, I Googled Yamaha dealers and headed straight for Iowa City Motorsports the next morning. Helpful tech Oliver dropped whetver chores he had lined up for a Thursday morning and got straight to work on the bag for about an hour, got access to its contents and re-secured the hinge. No charge! You guys are champions to this Canadian rider! Many thanks.

Before they became "Sun and Fun Motorsports", it was Iowa City Motorsports, and I felt a better connection when I went in there before. We bought 1 moped, and 2 motorcycles from them. I walked in a couple months ago to get a small part for my Ninja, and while it took awhile to get one of the guys to wait on me, once he did, they apparently had spare parts and he gave me the bolt I needed for the battery for free. Its a 90 minute drive, but we were in town anyway. Now I need a new nut for one of the battery grounds, I hope they have that part. They do have a great inventory of bikes and parts.

We had a flat tire on our was home from Colorado and searched for the nearest Honda dealership. We found Sun and Fun Motorsports and sent them an email on Sunday letting them know we would be there in the morning. We arrived and they were ready for us and we were back on the road an hour later. The guys there were great to work with and they were a real lifesaver for us in a moment of need. The dealership itself was fun to browse while we waited.

Had tire replacement done for the Yamaha, prices not too great compared to Cedar Rapids (but its closer), and they put one tire on backwards. Made the trip back to get it done right, but they forgot the customer comes first and would not discount - not the end of the world, but it would have made a positive impression.

Was told pick up was free and was then charged when going to the shop to pay for the repair, also careless in their work and did not properly reattach a battery cover which fell off dring a drive. This part is not produced now and is not possible to replace. DO NOT GO TO THIS STORE

Unpleasant and Rude. Sales guy was too busy picking his fingernails talking on his cellphone about his fake tan and trendy tribal tattoos to sell me a motorcycle. Ill drive to Cedar Rapids next time.
