Call it an expensive driving lesson — one that cost a motorcyclist big.

On Friday, Kelowna RCMP issued a tweet regarding a speeding motorist along Highway 97C. Police say the motorcycle was clocked at 207 km/h on Thursday, that the vehicle was uninsured and that the rider was unlicensed.

The motorcyclist, meanwhile, was fined $1,357.
