There were 4 Denver's chops that did 90 miles each, from Seligman, AZ, to Kingman, AZ, and 2 that did around 230(?) miles from Kingman to 29 Palms, CA.
Don't fix it if it ain't broke!

 In 07 I rode my strutted 836 to Bub.. 950 miles..
 I did around 690 or 780 miles in about 26 hs.! And I was out of practice.. no major rides in around 18 years.. and  only maybe 3 200 milers in that time.. Plus I just had the bike on the road for that year.. maybe a week or so..

 Go for it.. lots of 500 miles a day rigid toders out there.. used to se hundreds of them at Sturgis..
