I can't imagine the dealer is happy to refuse a test ride. It's his insurance company who are limiting things here.
Seems to me they're aiming to avoid the risk of recently-qualified oiks from jumping straight onto a 1000cc machine for a test ride. The underwriter is unlikely to have considered mature, relatively experienced riders of low capacity machines looking to step up this way.
Put it another way, if you were advertising your bike privately, would you be happy to allow a test ride like this?
