    Frustrating Wait!!

    Hey guys.. Hows it going.. got my little bike license in September I think.. and been TRYING (EMPHASIS ON TRYING) to save up to get myself a brand newie CBR250R!! So here is my question..

    Im already paying off a cage.. with St George!! The loan finishes in Feb 2013!! Im rather over the waiting and been wondering about refinancing the car and getting the CBR!!

    Any suggestions/warning/ideas?? Should I maybe just suck it up and wait it out??

    Or if there is someone out there who has done this... any suggestions???

    Thanks!!

    Buy a cheap second hand 250. Just so you can get out there. Insurance should be cheaper and you won't lose so much on re-sale.

    Personally, I would suggest that if you cant afford to pay cash for a bike (being a toy and all), you really shouldn,t go into debt over one.

    Get a cheapy...

    You are only 9 months from being able to get your R...

    If you buy a cheapy and keep saving in 9 months you will get most if not all your money back from the sale of the cheapy and have enough to buy your big bike with cash...

    ha ha. you sound like my calculating sensible self.. One thing I hate more then not being able to ride.. is being is debt..

    Marras makes an excellent point.. a second handie is cheaper and its already broken in.. I would never buy a brand new car because of the ridiculous price tag.. why would I bend that rule for a bike.. hmm..

    Thanks for the excellent advice guys. !! See you on the road..

    You should PM me,

    It's better to be thought stupid than open your mouth and remove all doubt

    Pure speed in sixth gear on a 5,000 foot straightaway is one thing, but pure speed in third gear on a gravel-strewn, downhill, ess turn is quite another.

    Do what rich said, get a cheap 2nd hand bike, and when you can either buy it outright or get a loan for a big bike, dont pay interest on something youre getting rid of in a year

    That Cbr could be a good buy...

    You may be able to sell it in 9 months for more than you pay for it...
