Can't help with your specific question, but you are not alone in "interviewing" dealerships. I pay particular attention to how long they are able to retain their mechanics.

A fair number of dealers don't allow test rides, even for experienced riders. However, they should be willing to contact Kawi's sales division and see if they have a tester for you to try. My friendly neighborhood Ninja store was able to bring in a Z400 to test ride when I was looking to buy my Ninja 400, which was close enough to the Ninja to answer my questions. (Maybe I'm a weirdo, but I also brought my luggage along to see if it would work on the new bike.
)Check Kawi's site for whether a demo days will be in your area, Demo tours, test rides, racing, and more | Local Kawasaki Events or there's this to request a test ride: Request a Test Ride | Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A.
I should get a commission!
Blank response from Cycle Max. For now I am parking the idea of buying a new Z400 from them. Might keep looking used market. The one used Z400 I liked: same thing--zero response upon polite inquiry. I took my Aprilia Tuono 660 out yesterday for the second time. It is too high for me, but my goal was to see if I want to keep the bike. Long story..big delay after purchase in January due to cataract surgery, etc. Anyway I had some fun on the Italian. I am proceeding ordering a rear spring compression lowering kit, and have my Aprilia

dealer install--including lowering front forks. It is a roll of the dice on final handling. We will see. Not too expensive of an experiment.
Cycle Max does not seem interested in my business? Who knows.

Give Ridersville Cycle a call. I found them excellent to work with. For me the trailer rental & 1.5-1.75hr drive 1way was well worth it.
They have a 23 Z400 ABS for $4799.
No BS, MSRP for bike plus tax & title docs which included my WV license plate
