[QUOTE="user 213, post: 635243, member: 213"] IMHO, those are different kinds of failures and in some cases may be related more to the conditions during the rally, than just miles ridden. Well said! WC's statement was about those that didn't have their bike ready to go, slamming last minute stuff together and not proving it out with some riding time. C'mon now, I know you've seen some farkling that was complete crap, as well as guys like Paul Glaves that make better parking lot repairs than most dealer's service work! The full range exists. [B]Absolutely![/B] Whether done by taking an extra day to ride there, or trailering the bike is really moot, as long as your bike is dialed in before the rally. If you're still working on your bike at the last minute, better to prove those changes/repairs/farkles on the way to the rally than during the rally. [/QUOTE]
