01 / What are you looking to ride?

Different bikes. One considered approach.

Motorbike finance options depend on the motorcycle, how you intend to use it and your circumstances. We can help you discuss eligibility for a range of purchases.

Road & commuter bikes

Explore finance options for eligible road-registered motorcycles suited to day-to-day travel.

02

Touring motorcycles

Considering longer rides or a touring upgrade? Discuss potential borrowing pathways and conditions.

Looking at another kind of motorcycle, such as an off-road or specialty bike? Lender criteria differ by asset.

Ask about your motorbike
02 / Finance with context

It's about the right details, not just the right bike.

A motorcycle purchase is more than a price tag. We help you work through the information lenders may need and the terms worth understanding, so you can make a better-informed decision.

Personal or business use

The purpose of the motorcycle can influence the product and information required. Discuss the use that fits your circumstances.

New or used purchase

Lenders may consider the bike's age, condition, value and registration when assessing eligibility.

Dealer or private seller

Some lenders have different documentation or purchase requirements for private sales. Confirm these before proceeding.

03 / Before you take the keys

Think beyond the monthly repayment.

Comparing a loan means understanding both the agreement and the expenses involved in owning and riding the motorcycle.

Loan structure & cost

Check the interest rate, loan term, fees, repayment frequency and total amount repayable. A smaller repayment does not always mean a lower overall cost.

On-road & ownership costs

Plan for registration, insurance, protective equipment, servicing, tyres and other ongoing costs alongside the loan.

Eligibility & bike details

Motorcycle age, condition, value, seller documentation and intended use may be assessed alongside your income, commitments and credit profile.

Different lenders may assess road-registered, off-road, modified and specialty motorcycles differently. Availability, contract terms and suitability depend on the asset and individual application. Seek independent advice where appropriate.

05 / Frequently asked questions

Motorbike finance, explained.

The key things riders often want to know before making an application.

Can I apply for finance for a used motorbike?
Potentially. Some lenders consider eligible second-hand motorcycles. Age, condition, valuation, registration and purchase details may affect which options are available.
Can I finance a motorbike purchased from a private seller?
Some lenders may accept qualifying private sales, but extra ownership or identity documentation and valuation checks may be needed. Ask about the seller requirements for your particular bike.
Is motorbike finance available for business use?
The official motorbike quick-quote form offers personal-use and business-use options. The appropriate finance structure and eligibility depend on your purpose and the lender's assessment.
Can I get finance for an off-road or modified bike?
Availability varies widely. Lenders may have restrictions on non-road-registered, heavily modified or specialty motorcycles. Contact the Vertex team with the model and details before applying.
Do I need a deposit to finance a motorcycle?
A deposit may or may not be required depending on the asset, lender, purchase price and your personal circumstances. The amount financed and lender conditions determine the applicable requirements.
Will a motorbike quick quote affect my credit score?
The official Vertex leisure quick-quote page says obtaining its quote will not impact your credit score. A later formal finance application may involve a credit check, so confirm the process before submitting.
How long does motorbike finance approval take?
Timing varies based on the lender, application completeness, credit assessment, and any extra checks relating to the bike. An indicative quote is not a guarantee of approval or timing.
Does receiving a quote mean I am approved?
No. Quote figures are indicative only. Any application is subject to the selected lender's eligibility criteria, identity and income verification, credit assessment and final approval.
