The kid doesn't "own" the bike now. Do you think a dealership would be allowing any test rides if they didn't have insurance to cover these kinds of situations?

Traded my '74 Norton 850 Interstate for a new '75 Harley FX ($3490.00.) It was 1975 of course.
I was 22 years old.

And no, I don't see anything particularly funny about it either.

Exactly. The dealer is the idiot here, and should be at fault.
