Hey guys/girls Just wanted to state I got my first bike a 1998 gs500. Picked her up today for $2800 cdn with 17,000 kms on it. I cant wait to ride it but im not going to until I take the course which is 400$ here in canada. I'm 17 and im paying $2100 a year for insurance the cheapest which only includes 3rd party and comp. I'm all set and taking the course this weekend. Great site you got here I can't wait to be part if it. Take care.

Hey, Congrats on the bike! :)

WOW.. $400. for the course!!.. I hope they teach you backflips and sh&& for that $$$ :) In my state (Pennsylvania) the course is free ! all you have to do is get your permit.. $10.00 :) and the permit is good for 1 year of riding :)

The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?
