I wouldn't think twice about buying a 2 stroke dirt bike online or across the country. I have done it several times. With the internet you can have parts in 2-3 days from anywhere in the world.

I might be a bit hesitant to buy a fuel injected 4 stroke without any service support though.

I think that the days of buying "online" direct from a OEM/distributor and having dedicated service centres are coming sooner than we think. Prices of bikes are getting so high and the margins are so slim already. The return on investment is so small the manufacturers may have no choice but to lower their prices and cut the middle man out of the equation altogether in order to keep people riding.
