    Okay then, buy this one. Slightly smaller, uglier, and closer.

    Fly out there. Drive it back as far as you can until you hit snow. Then rent a small Uhaul box truck and truck it the rest of the way.

    I don't know how these guys ride those heavy beasts like that. Can you say commitment?

    It's a gorgeous bike though, and would be ideal for a mortal in VT.

    You don't really have to change spark plugs much anymore, so who cares how much those cost?

    Never buy an oem sparkplug anyway. There's better stuff from this place called the aftermarket.

    It helps that the Super Enduro has high-end suspension.

    It actually kind of fits me -- I'm 6'4"/260, so I suppose a heavier, stouter bike makes some amount of sense for me. Plus I'm not all that interested in super-technical riding -- what I really want to do is blast down dirt/gravel roads at 80mph... and get out west and ride the Continental Divide Trail.

    I don't think I'm going to be able to make this particular bike work (unless it doesn't sell for a while), but I have decided to replace my Honda with a Super Enduro by this summer. Luckily they turn up fairly regularly on the ADVrider flea market.
