Default how do most of u guys pay for new bikes? (ex. 2000-2003)

I was just wondering since in some places u don't have to pay insurance to buy a bike unless u finance through the dealer. And that brings the total cost up.

do u guys take out loans from the bank, cash, or loan from dealer/w insurance.

Cash...but loans are good too if you can get a nice line of credit with a low apr. Full coverage on insurance is the way to go.

I've paid cash and have had loans. My current bike is financed, only for 2 years though.

I got my loan from a credit union(bank), and they wrote the dealer a check which I delivered.

I got to finish off paying my $9000.00 car loan that my credit union gave me when I was 18 for my rx-7. But Now I am trying to sell https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=482401 and my crx to get a BIKE!

Thank god for the credit Union they approved someone like me.
