Wasn't gonna finance a motorcycle, but I was recently informed how essential a credit score is for getting a loan on a house, and I have barely any credit right now. I was also planning on getting an older bike, but considering there's like no used bikes in dealerships around here, I guess I'm going the new route (well, there are plenty of used Harleys, but I'm not gonna pay $25k for a used bike just because the gas tank says 'Harley Davidson' on the side. Harleys are built like junk and horribly under-featured anyway fight me).
So uh, if all goes well, I should have this baby on Saturday. Not quite what I originally had in mind, but it's growing on me. Hard to argue with the $7.6k msrp, too (ignoring the fact that the bike I was originally looking at costs just over $2k, and doesn't have any dealer's fees or sales tax, other than what I'd pay at the DMV ).

It's gonna be my main (and only) mode of transportation, so it's not just for credit. Credit is just a little bonus for when I eventually get a loan on a house, and it also allows me to get a better bike than I otherwise might be able to. As much as $7k hurts, if it's a reliable vehicle for the rest of my life, then it's definitely a worthwhile investment.
Although, I'm not gonna go for that one anymore. I visited that dealership and don't really feel comfortable working with them. There is that other dealer selling the Suzuki S40 I mentioned, and they seem much more trustworthy. They've also got some other good bikes I'm gonna look at. Not to mention the price is way more palatable.
