A Kourier has to establish space on the pavement. Predictable law-abiding behaviour lulls drivers. They mentally assign you to a little box in the lane, assume you will stay there, can't handle it when you leave that little box.
Y.T. is not fond of boxes. Y.T. establishes her space on the pavement by zagging mightily from lane to lane, establishing a precedent of scary randomness. Keeps people on their toes, makes them react to her, instead of the other way round.

pays you for life if you ever become invalid because whatever accident.
But after 25 years that is all going up...big time & my bike is on the blacklist.
So to plates for the same bike in
2008 : 652$
2009 : 984$
2010 : 1400$
I am riding in 08 but will surely start track days only as of 2009

My only solace is that I received my insurance renewal, 188$ 2-way for this year

$520 a year (theft, fire, vandalism, liability). Collision would have made it $1100 a year. Liability only would be $250 a year. Clean driving record, licenced for 10 years, safety course discounts, etc, etc.
Registration is only around $40 here in Alberta.

That is insane! How can they justify that? Rhetorical question, I have heard that Quebec was trying to price out all bikes, but hadn't seen the numbers listed. Man, what a kick in the uglies. No wonder there are so many bikes for sale over there.
Insurance full coverage, 07 cbr1krr $675, back before my TIller blew up, PLPD only $120. The thing was only worth $3500, and full coverage was $1200/yr, like Jason said, it just didn't add up.
