First time buyer (Canadian)

[imported_siberus]

Hey all.(waves) I recently got my M2 and was thinking about buying a bike. So I was wondering what kind of fees besides tax I should expect to pay. Also do any of these fees get charged if I purchase a used bike from a dealership? Thanks alot in advanced your input is greatly appreciated.

Welcome. I'm not Canadian nor do I have a motorcycle. Hopefully you'll get more input from other people here who are more knowledgeable in purchasing motorcycles.

Where in Canada are you from?

I'm from Toronto and I can tell you prepare to pay a lot for insurance. My quote was over $ 5000 for a 24 year old on M2 with a clean driving record. Same insurance across the border was $ 400 bucks.

If you are from TO check out the www.gtamotorcycle.com forum, they have some good info there.

How old are you? What kind of bike are you looking to get?

Motorcycle in Toronto? Why not just save yourself the time now and jump from a building if you really want to die that badly.

Sport bikes cost even more to insure. Good luck, make sure you get quotes first.
