I'm not sure about BC, I know in Alberta there's a course you can take (they even rent you the bikes for crying out loud) and they teach you pretty much everything, even how to lay down a bike should you need to. Then you get a discount on your license.

The last bike I had (2007 Katana 750) I bent the frame on...so I'm excited to get this beast. And when I say beast I mean it...this thing has 4 pipes running from the engine, 1100 cc...big bike for someone like me (5'7")
Well I have my bike license from the US already. We'll see what they say about riding here. I had a Honda for about 3 years when I lived down in Miami. For me a bike always seemed like a waste with the weather up here but now I am starting to consider it.

Oh and 20K is a bit more than I would actually pay

He did put an insane amount of money into this bike though. I think off the lot it was about $22K when all was said and done (base was $16K, so he upgraded about everything) and then with some of the aftermarket mods, it up to about 30K! Its a 2007, so not too old.

Besides wearing his really sweaty helmet, it was so nice to ride this thing. A little more powerful than I am used to but I could manage
