Test ride? In Los Angeles?

Won't help much but my dealer here in Cinti allows test rides.

Im am curious if that is just for you or just anybody that is serious. You have a good relationship with your dealer and they know you are a hard core motorcyclist. I have no doubt they would give you the keys to a goldwing in a heartbeat if you ask for them or anything else for that matter.

Me, by the time I get to the dealership, I have done my homework on everything including the product and price and am well armed with information. I dont go in half stepping was turned down I know 3 times. My last hope was to hope one of you nice folks at the CB1100 rally next may let me take a spin on one while you followed on my Nighthawk. Lucky for me I was finally able to cut a deal with a refundable deposit if I didnt like it.

Its aggravating I tell you. I had several follow up calls about hey are you ready to buy ect... My response, yeah I already bought because you boneheads would not let me ride the CB. Nice work and maybe you need to look at your policy on no test rides. That po'd a lot of salesmen off I know. It took me 2 miles to know I wanted the CB1100. THats it. Dealers are stupid for not profiling people when they pull in on another Honda inline 4 and noticing their age ect.... Dumb dumb dumb. Instead, they want to play games with financing and all of the other tricks. They seem disappointed when they find out you have cash. It cuts their bag of tricks down to zero other than price.
