    Default BEST RATE

    IMHO......do not get the Dealer involved with the loan......this will cost you money somewhere in the transaction......that's how they make MONEY off you.......Go to a CREDIT UNION you will get the best RATE there ..........................Good luck,......Mike

    Best financing is obtained on your own if you have a good credit rating. Best to arrange for X $ and then you have the ability to negotiate with the dealer.

    Dealer arranged financing usually entails "dealers reserve." EG. The dealer quotes you 7% interest rate, the real interest rate from the bank is 5%. You pay 7% and the dealer gets a 2% kickback from the bank as a part of the deal with the bank.

    Motorcycle loans are usually more expensive than car loans. Why??? I don't know.

    I have found my best interest rates from Credit Unions the last couple times I financed something.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    I was talking to my dealer and going thru my credit union she said she could easily get us 1.5%, she just did a loan thru them for a lady with a leftover st and she put a decent chunk down and was at .99%

    i would not pay more than 3.9%
    I bought my yamaha new at that rate and only borrowed 5k but the interest over 6 years was like 500$
    Got my car at 0% for 72 and thats the way it should be. if your buying their car for 30K an interest free loan seems like a great way to sell them.

    I agree. My Credit Union always has the best rate, esecially with automatic deduction.
