Thanks all for the welcome!!
I'm afraid it will be a long winter this year - I did the same thing last year picking up my Miata just before Christmas, driving it home and putting it away.
Anyways, I picked up the 400 at GW Cycle World in Calgary's northeast. I had been bugging them all summer and they finally gave in and sold it to me for $6,900 Cdn, which I thought was a pretty good price (they even threw in a decent helmet). I did have a few weeks to try it out, putting about 450 km on it before it got just too darn cold!! Certainly had lots of people stop and ask me about it when I did get out.
I'm located in SW Calgary in Woodbine so can be out of the city and heading towards the mountains in only a few minutes - plus you can park a bike downtown for free still which is really great - and was one of the reasons I decided to take the plunge.
