How to increase your chances of getting approved for bike finance for bad credit

To improve your chances of getting approved for motorbike finance with bad credit, consider the following tips:

1. Improve your credit score where you can

Check your credit report to ensure any loans you paid off in the past are actually cleared. Doing this simple step could improve your chance of getting a more significant loan amount, if you are approved for your loan application, so you can afford to buy your dream motorbike.

2. Ask around and get quotes

Don’t be afraid to approach different lenders to discuss and compare your financing options. However, make sure you apply to the one you find has the most reasonable terms for your situation. Bear in mind that multiple applications might negatively affect your credit score. 

3. Consider your budget

Before applying to your chosen motorbike finance provider, make sure you can show document proof of your efforts at saving — which may be viewed as an indication of your sound financial habits.

4. Be prompt with your repayments

Your primary responsibility as a borrower is to make timely and consistent repayments to the lender in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. This will help you maintain a good record as a borrower and also help to keep you on track so your loan can be paid off on time and in accordance with your loan agreement. All this will likely have a positive impact on your future borrowing efforts.
