Hey Robzilla, Welcome to KZR! 550's are great bikes. You will be real happy with it. Not only is it a good bike to learn on, it has enough power to keep a smile on you face if you need to crack the throttle. :)
I 've been to Grande Prairie a couple of times, nice place.:)

....forgot to mention, take a motorcycle safety course. There is so much to learn. You will probably meet some new friends too, aka riding buddies!!
