Motorcycle Newbie – Buy a motorcycle without a test drive

Hi, everybody, I’m about to do my driver’s license. So that I have a little bit of something from the season, I’m looking for motorcycles in parallel. I’ve decided now for a Kawasaki ER-6, because I’m currently doing my driving lessons on the Naked version of it. I was at the dealer’s and looked at alternatives, but I feel safer and more comfortable at the beginning when I’m sitting on something familiar. The dealer has both an ER-6N and a At the moment I tend to take the disguised machine, because not only he, but also my stepfather have suggested to me that a disguise already has such its advantages. My concerns are rather that I can’t do a test drive because of the missing driver’s license… But is that so important? After all, everything is new and unfamiliar and I don’t have a real comparison either. At the moment I rather listen to my gut feeling as far as the dealer is concerned and that’s very good – he took his time, explained a lot to me and didn’t seem like he wanted to sell me anything at all costs. What do you think? Can you do without a test drive as a newcomer?
