Problem is any schmo can say they'll buy your bike then take it for a test ride, crash it then you're liable for the damage to the bike and possibly even their hospital bill.
Last bike I bought, yeah it was centuries ago, was at a dealership and I just got on and rode. Is it different now at dealers with new bikes?
