Why not? 3.9% for 24 months. Then it goes up to 17%. Refinance before that or pay it off.Jeff said:

Generally Credit Card finance charges are calculated different than your normal bank loans . sometimes you can get Dicked even with what sounds like a low rate . When I pickmy R1 up Saturday I will look at the Yamaha 3.9% plan and find out what the total cost of the bike will be after financing to see if it is OK . If not I will just use Peoplefirst.com to pay it off the next week .r1-superstar said:

I WOULD SUGGEST LOOKING AT YOUR LOCAL CREDIT UNION....THEY GAVE ME 4.9% FOR 48 MOS ON MY R1...THATS A REALLY LOW RATE FOR A BIKE FOR THAT TERM...AND YES CREDIT CARD IS REVOLVING INTEREST VERSUS A NORMAL LOAN WHICH IS SIMPLE INTEREST SO YAMAHAS SPECIAL IS NOT THAT BAD OF AN IDEA AS LONG AS YOU PAY IT OFF IN THE TERM THAT THE 3.9% IS GOOD FOR. OTHERWISE DON'T DO IT BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T PAY IT OFF IN THE SPECIAL RATE TERM YOU WILL END UP PAYING A SH#&LOAD OF INTEREST

I was approved and used the Yamaha card for my '03 last May and as stated by R1 took them up on the 3.9% until Jan. 2005. Then: I transferred entire balance to my Capital One card on a special transfer rate of 3.9% good for the life of the balance transfer.....One hell of a deal IMO. Did the same thing with my car a few years earlier and had it paid off in no time. Might be an option for you if ya can get a high enough credit limit on the Capital One card or a card similiar though I have found Cap. 1 to be the best for this this type of transaction. No "funny" business with Cap. One either like the "2cycle billing period" alot of card have written in fine print.....
I know alot of people hate using "plastic" but can be a tremendous advantage under certain circumstances.

Just an FYI in case some don't know:
Capital One bought PeopleFirst.
They're pretty much giving the best available rates. You can do better with special orgs like AAA, and Credit Unions, but Capital One/PeopleFirst is a safe bet too.
If you have above 720 credit score, you can get the best rates at any bank.

I agree. :iamwithst I'm on my second bike with them. At leastextremeR1der said:
check them out. Great rates with automatic payments. They are
on the line and will not take you for a ride. Very easy to get the
loan after you qualifiy. Plus, your check is sent out fast to you.
