The only dealers around here are a Honda and Yamaha dealer and they are tiny...I am in a similar situation, there is a Suzuki dealership a lot closer to me but there's only ghosts that go there, the shop is always mostly empty with occasional used bikes in the show room.
The dealership i need to go to is a long way away.
A friend of mine had a BMW S1000R and it went into limp mode so he trailered it 2 hrs to the BMW dealer they told him they may not be able to get to it the day he took it there so he drove home only to drive back 2 days later when it was sorted out...he went down with wife and rode it home, when he got an hour out, the bike went into limp mode again...back it went...by this time his wife was at home so he had to call her to come back....the next time he went to get it, he took the trailer...
He traded it for a Harley of all things....
