Its "Standard Operating Procedure" here for virtually all the Japanese/multi-line dealers. Their crap response to a demo request: "Buy the bike and if you're unhappy after riding it we will cancel the deal."
Harley will let you demo every bike in the store. The Ducati -Triumph dealer usually gas a demo bike of each model, certainly when a new model comes out.
Luckily for me there's Bike Week and Biketoberfest in Daytona where I can ride damn near anything. But if I didn't live a couple hours from there it would be very difficult to buy Japanese.
