Going to a dealership can sometimes be torture: all these bikes you can only dream of, put on display, that you don't get to try, besides the one you're actually interested in buying. That's when demo rides allow you to check a few items off your list: you get to ride. All. The things. If you plan on attending this year's Sturgis Motorcycle Rally happening from August 3 to the 12, it will be your chance to knock one or ten things off your motorcycle bucket list.
