Cant see why not as long as you have the ability to pay. You may want to buy something to sit in your lounge room and never ride for all they know.

Sounds like a good idea. Ducati 916 would be great in the corner of my living room.

You can apply but any reputable finance company will decline your application. Basically you would be a large risk as an unlicenced and thus uninsured rider.

Got nothing to do with a licence. If you've got a job and an income they'll lend you money on anything.

Insurance Law Reform Act 1977, Section 11 comes into play.To decline a claim, it must be done so for a reason which directly contributed to or caused the reason for the claim.
The insurer also presumably knew when they sold the policy what license the rider had, and what bike they were insuring.

Dont borrow money for depreciating assets. If you can afford to pay back a loan, save up for it instead.

save the cash up first-youll get a better deal when initally making a one off all up payment-beats paying interest!

Sounds like they had you pegged as a sucker from day one (well, you were buying a harley, so I guess that's a given). Furthermore, perhaps you're just not a good negotiator.

I doubt it. If you are financing, you will need to get full insurance, which no company will want to give you if you arent licenced at all. Frankly, if you have to finance a gift, you cant afford the gift. Different if it was for yourself, but shit, financing a gift for someone else! f*%$ that

then you are a fool. My local shop hanst charged me full price for anything in two and a half years, whether my purchasebe thousands, or just a few bucks, I always get discounts. If you bought a new bike Id have asked what they were prepared to chuck in, if they said nothing, Id have said 'sweet as, the shop down the road will' and my cash would have walked.

Dont judge me.I wouldnt be looking for finance if I were feeling insecure about it.And as for financing, If I can cover the repayments, i can afford it and the same could be said about home owners
