Had you read the posts above? Consulates and Embassies are not travel agencies, even less overland forums: it's not their function. Even Tourism Boards won't give you that info, but here you have first hand.
I apologise in advance, I don't want to sound rude writing in capitals, but this sentence is intended for travelers looking for info about Iran in the future, since this post IMHO is adding confusion to the topic:
FORGET ABOUT ANY IRANIAN MOTORCYCLING FEDERATION, no (proven) need to involve those guys!
Apart from that, wish you the best in your trip from Istanbul. Don't miss Turkey, go East, it's a beautiful country full of beautiful people. It may be the nicest part of the trip and will add the "oriental touch" resembling more to the original plan.
Regards,
Esteban
