this is my first bike and i am wondering if this is too much for a novice? i do plan on taking the chp course on riding and taking baby steps when it comes to riding. i am very responsible and know if dont respect the bike for a spilt second that can be my ass. all the being said do u think its rasonable to go out and buy a brand new 2007 cbr 600rr? and please dont hold back i rather u guys be blunt then me get hurt or something like that.

QUOTE(SlickRick @ Jun 26, 2007 - 12:21 AM) [snapback]572127[/snapback] well i already have the cash i guess u could say the bank will just give me a certified check, i guess i could always go back and ask to just get the cash, but if i get a used bike the interest rate goes up a few points right now i have a 1% APR so if i got the new CBR i would not have 2 pay anything outta my pocket and my payments on the loan would be $127 a month i cant do much better than that. and the 2007 is such a vast improvement (or at least thats what all the reviews i read say) over last years i really rather spend the cash on a new cbr with the better performance. So you have 9-10k to spend as in you actually have that in the bank? If thats the case, why are you getting a loan. You will end up spending more on the bike regardless if its 1%. Thats 1% more you don't have to pay not to mention you don't have to make monthly payments. Not only that, everyone who responded said get a used bike. You can spend about 5-6 grand, get an 04 R6 and learn on that. Save the rest of the money, avoid a loan. -------------------- |
