$225 per month. They said it will drop to about half when I renew next year.
$225/month isn't too bad, I pay almost $400/month for my Ducati.
But then again, I am a 20 year old riding an exotic crotch rocket.

Great bike, OP. I was looking at the GS500 (same year and paint job too) before I bought my SV650s.
Ontario is odd. I pay ~$300/year and got my license and the bike around the same time as OP. 22 years old.
Hope you have some great rides!

Nice bike! Big 90degree v-twins are fun as hell. I rode my buddy's TLR a couple of times, and the smooth strong power delivery was awesome.
I'm used to an inline 4, so v-twin bikes seem so skinny too. Good in traffic.

Bikes are mad expensive to insure over there. Here if you've been riding a decent few years and have a history of not claiming you're looking at £200 a year for even the fastest superbike

I haven't dropped it yet, nope. It's been a lot of fun. I went for my longest ride yet today, about 70 minutes each way. I had surgery on my right shoulder a couple years ago and it starts to ache pretty bad after about an hour. I'm hoping that strengthening my muscles (I've been going to the gym again lately) is going to help with that.
Otherwise, I noticed an interesting phenomenon today though - every time I passed another motorcyclist put their left hand down at a 45 degree angle as we passed. Does anyone know what that means?
