the really shitty part about financing a bike is paying for full coverage insurance. even paying some crazy interest on a personal loan would be cheaper than paying full coverage.

a full year of liability is a hundred bucks and change for me.

That's what I did... just took a personal loan for $2k, not getting collision (liability & comp for about $400 a year). Collision would have doubled my insurance premium. It's cheaper to pay the higher interest (only like 1% higher) on a person loan rather than an auto loan.

Actually its pretty good! I mean I have credit cards I use religiously (no puns:P), I barely use cash as to keep cash out of my hands. It usually goes, I sell something online, throw that to my bank account via paypal, buy stuff w/ credit card, pay it off electronically from my bank.... it should be okay I hope. My one credit line is about 5x more than anyone my age so I think I'm okayish. I just don't want to be stuck with 25% interest on loans.. cough

BTW RS, that bikes hot. I love those years of Honda's
