buying a bike ?'s....
Im just wondering is what kind interest rate would a 19 year old get financed at for a bike ? Will they financed a used bike ?…I know the interest will be higher since it is a used bike but I really don’t want to buy a new bike for the fact that ive never rode before….any places you would recommend? Thanks a lot Julian

OR if your really stuck on buying a new/used bike, instead of financing at a dealership take out a personal loan at your bank. That way your interest rate should be lower, you should have a higher chance at getting approved(due to your age, but credit history might be iffy also because of your age)and if its a personal/signature loan you can use it for whatever and wont have to carry insurance on it. Now I know when you buy a new bike most dealers wont require to you purchase insurance, but for your age and a used bike Im not sure. Taking out a personal loan from your bank is almost the same as walking in with cash.

good luck, youll need it.
when I was 19 and I can guarantee I had better credit backing me I was still denied.
REason being is not long term existing accounts. why would they trust someone who has only had a credit card for a year.

Listen to this... my credit card with my bank.. the limit was 2300. I asked to increase it, they denied me (Good credit, just not old enough). Yet, one week later, I get approved at the dealership for up to $11,500.

You are correct. It was 9,400 out the door. They just APPROVED me for it. I guess so that I would go buy a 1000 or something. I don't know. Cause isn't the new 1000 around 11,000 before taxes?

I believe personal loans are VERY hard to get. It's my understanding that you not only need colatoral but extremely good credit. The interest rate on these are usually higher then your typical bike/car loan. They are also generally short term. Like 12-24 months.
