I never thought about posting here but I figured why not. I'm trying to get a loan to buy a 1000rr through a private seller but I only have 2300 and he's asking 7300 for the bike. So I'm looking for a 5k dollar loan. I tried going to a credit union w/my girlfriend as a co-bar since her parent's work was associated with the bank but they didn't approve us since I lack credit history. (Only paying for a car-no credit cards) And my girlfriend has no credit history. Getting a friend/or another person to cobar is an option but no one I know would want to co-bar. My question is, is there any other place I can go to that will give me a loan for 5k? I really want to get this bike because it's a deal but I just need someone to give me a loan. Any advice?

No collateral? Its tough to say where to go...how old are you? You may have to look elsewhere...this may not be your bike?

oh i know. sorry musichyp... didn't mean to come across the wrong way i'm in banking so i just shot that out there without thinking. regarding collateral most financial institutions won't approve a loan if you.. let's say give your car title as collateral if you're trying to buy a bike. the bike title will do collateral-wise. i'll give a loan up to the value of the vehicle. some places/people will do up to 110%... some only up to 80%. if he came to me with that 1000rr he's definitely w/in loan value. if i denied the loan and he offered me his car title (assuming it was paid off) i still couldn't approve it. since he's got limited credit he'll need a co-signer. either that or go to a subprime lender in which case he'd be getting like 23% on the loan - not something i would recommend

you can open up a credit card, the ones with annual pay will most likely approve you. Get like at least a 5k limit, and do cash advance. You're gonna get hit really hard with interest, but that might be the only option. But if you've never had a credit card, i don't know if you can be approved that high in the beginning. BTW, you should still get a credit card for emergency purposes...

Get a credit card and start establishing credit. No late payments, no excuses and especially no gone to collections. Stay with a job, at least a year, even more will help. Think smaller now or at least cheaper. Be patient. Start small, I had car repairs while in college, only owed $50 but I paid when I said I would. I started establishing credit history at 18, first new car was when I was 20, bought a house when I was 25. All this on not much of an income.

If you can get someone with good to decent credit to co sign you should have a problem with 3,500. So I would suggest something in the 5-5,500 price range. I had my mom co sign on a 3,500 loan and I got it w/out a problem. I make less than 20,000 a year and had no credit. Thats the only way though co sign or wait and start building credit then try again.

I agree, as far as building a little credit.. I know when i was trying to get a bike a few years ago since i was so young they wouldn't aprove me for shyt...... I had great credit but just not enough. Its alot easier to get approved for a car than a bike when you have little credit due to the fact that a bike is more of a recreational type vehicle and not a necessity like a car is....
