Light Sport plane annual maintenance cost

[Richard6]

OK - so I want to get my Light Sport pilot license. I called one of the local flight schools and got some info on flight training cost ($120 per hour). But I have not been able to determine is the annual cost of maintaining the aircraft. I am looking at some thing like the KOLB FIRESTAR with the Rotax 503 engine in a pusher configuration.

Can anyone tell me what the annual cost would be ?

I would like to know this before I start spending money on flight training.

Thanks,

Richard
