Default Bank Loans for a Super Bike

Just wanted to know if any of the members on here have actually secured a bank loan for their R1, Hayabusa, FZ1 or the Ducati Monster.

If yes, what are the details regarding -
  • Loan Eligibility and Documents Required
  • Is a guarantor needed?
  • What percent of loan can be approved
  • What is the loan duration
  • Processing fees or charge etc.
  • Any special schemes?
The only thing I found so far is that HDFC bank has a finance scheme available for Harley Davidson bikes. I am trying to contact them and see if they do it for other brands too.

Would be good if the members can provide any insights into the process.

Add ICICI for HD motorcycles - ICICI Bank two wheelers loans, Service Charges for two Wheeler Loans (see bottom)
And I assume, Kawasaki motorcycles should be financed by Two Wheeler Loan - Bajaj Finserv Lending
And Yamaha CBU's again from BAF I guess - Products | India Yamaha Motor Pvt. Ltd.

According to the website -

"Currently two wheeler loans are offered on Harley Davidson models only."

Looks like they are not even catering to the common commuters

I wonder how the people going for Ninja 650R are financing their purchases.

They do finance other bikes Got the loan for FZ1 from them only
The area manager actually gave me an insight ! almost 50 HD, 30 Ducaties , 4 or 5 yamahas and couple of suzukies !

BTW keep negotiating on the price and the interest !! thats the only way to bring the crazy interest rates down from double to single !!

See this - Bank of India

From the above link "The Scheme provides loan for purchasing 2/4 wheeler vehicles (like car, scooter, motorcycle etc.). Maximum amount of loan is Rs. 25 lacs, depending upon cost of vehicle & income of proponent, at attractive rate of interest and easy repayment plan".

I approached the Bank of India branch in my neighborhood when i was to buy my ninja but they require extensive documentation. Plus they went back on the interest amount committed (10.50%) saying that was a festive offer and the new one was 11.25%. For a measly sum, the amount of documentation they needed inspite of being a customer for over 25 years made me feel that i was taking a multi crore loan. Dropped the idea of a loan from these banks.

Wow!.. did not know that interest rates could be bargained for. I am still waiting for HDFC's call. good to know about this in advance.

Agreed! SBI can also be a major pain in the ass with their processes.

^^ yeah thnx to your post.... i had enquired about the financing schemes for the r1 a couple of months back... the downpayment required was around 6 lakh and the rest can be financed through the dealer itself... the roi for a 5 year loan was around 12% and the emi was coming to be around 22k
