It seems that the rules change with every rally, and more often than in F1.

People's bikes were (re)designed or altered to comply to the original set of requirements - Vetter's requirements, and likely not the every-day requirements of his competitors - so when a requirement wasn't particularly useful to them, they solved it creatively to enter the competition.

Now they're faced with different requirements that may not particularly suit their everyday use of the vehicles.

Do you expect them to alter their vehicles, again and again as the rules change ?
