a couple of things.
DNA should be able to support PR as it's NA.
Second, I personally would think the allure of PR would bring a few quality wrenches to the island.

but, alas, you are right, without partnering there would be no way DNA would support a new dealer in PR.

Oppressive heat and road maintenance also don't help. PR has impressive scenery and the heat is not terrible while you're moving, but the potholes are the size of small canyons. It would hurt if I had to pay a huge premium to buy a Duc and it got caught in one of those. I would focus on Hypers and Multis. The other thing that probably hurt the dealer was the fact that the owner was a douche. Getting a quality tech would not be that difficult, but keeping him happy would have been.

Finally got my 14t, Leo Vince SBK Evo Carbons and the Barracuda belly pan. I know a lot of you don't dig the belly pans on monsters but I personally think it kinda adds an edge to the new Monsters. Went out for a short ride to make sure everything is set up for tomorrow's Mini Iron Butt a buddy and I will do, heading completely around the coast of PR. I gotta say the 14t is by far the best mod so far, completely different bike. Suffice to say I'm renewing my vows with my bike, LOVE HER!




Your bike looks great!  I can't get the 14T soon enough!
