Is financing a new or used bike worth it?

[caspernz]

Lets say GSX-R600 2015 are on special at 12999 saving 5.5k but I had only 11k cash and trade.

Idd loan the 2k rather than buy a second hand gsxr600.

Each situation is different.

Absolutely correct in the above example. Be a different story if you only had 2k cash and had to borrow the 11k.

And ultimately a very personal decision.
