That's because HD dealerships are use to a bunch of mid-life crising 40 year olds who want the biggest baddest HD to brag to their friends about and haven't ridden a bicycle since they were 14 much less a high TQ heavy ass shitty handling/braking motorcycle.

The only reason I see people get to test ride triumphs/ducs/aprillia/etc is because in general people who want those bikes (or are willing to buy them) already have riding experience on top of being in their 30s or so with decent jobs to pay for the bike.
