Motorcycle Finance Options

Financing a motorcycle works similarly to financing a car, with a few key differences. Motorcycles typically have lower values, faster depreciation, and higher insurance risk, which affects the finance options available and the rates offered.

Secured vs Unsecured for Motorcycles

The choice between secured and unsecured finance is particularly important for motorcycles because of their faster depreciation compared to cars. Here are the key considerations:

  • Secured loans offer lower rates (1-2% less) but the bike is used as collateral and must meet age/value requirements
  • Unsecured loans offer more flexibility — any bike, any age, and no repossession risk
  • For bikes under $5,000, unsecured is usually better as the admin costs of secured finance eat into the rate saving
  • For new bikes over $10,000, secured finance delivers meaningful savings
  • Consider gap insurance for secured loans on new bikes, as motorcycle depreciation is rapid in the first 1-2 years

Motorcycle Loan FAQs

Can I get a loan specifically for a motorcycle?
Yes, motorcycle loans are a standard product offered by many lenders on our panel. They work the same way as car loans — you can get a secured loan (bike as security) or unsecured personal loan. Some lenders have motorcycle-specific products, while others treat them under their general vehicle finance category. Minimum loan amounts are typically $3,000-$5,000.
What interest rates can I expect for a motorcycle loan?
Motorcycle loan rates typically start from 6.49% p.a. for secured loans on new bikes with good credit. Used motorcycle rates start from around 7.49% p.a. Rates are generally slightly higher than car loans because motorcycles depreciate faster and carry higher insurance risk. Unsecured motorcycle loans start from around 8.99% p.a.
Can I finance a used motorcycle?
Yes, used motorcycles can be financed through secured or unsecured loans. For secured finance, most lenders accept bikes up to 7-10 years old at the end of the loan term. Older bikes, vintage motorcycles, or low-value bikes under $5,000 may need unsecured finance. Our brokers find the best option for the specific bike you want.
Do I need a deposit for a motorcycle loan?
Not necessarily. Some lenders offer 100% financing for new motorcycles with good credit. For used bikes, a deposit of 10-20% can help you get a better rate. Higher-value bikes (over $20,000) are generally easier to finance without a deposit than cheaper ones.
Can I finance motorcycle gear and accessories?
Some lenders allow you to include the cost of essential riding gear (helmet, jacket, boots, gloves) and accessories in the loan, particularly for new bike purchases. This is more commonly available from motorcycle dealer finance, but our brokers can also find lenders who accommodate this.
