Default Bike Dealers

Just wondering are there any dealers that have test bikes.I'm in the market for a new bike but all the dealers dont really have test bikes. Just like a car it would be nice to test drive one first.I understand the reason why most dealers dont have test bike,but when your paying 13.5k for something it would be nice to see if you like it first.BTW the bike im looking into is the 2008 kawasaki concours 14.Awesome bike.

Yea, I'm curious about this too. I went to a few different places to try some bikes out, with no luck. I went to Motorsports of Tampa, I think, and they told me to come back with a helmet to test ride. I came back, and they didn't let me ride any. I was pissed. LMK if you find anywhere to try some bikes out.

Goto daytona during bike week you can test drive just about everything out there and with all the new models released this year there should be alot to test drive. They do have sign up sheets so get there early.
