This is why I think the WG is a better deal. If you get it for $5500 that's $2k under book. As someone stated before they should loan up to 110% of retail, so $7,500-8,000. That should take care of your $2K short on the Vic. Anyway worth a try. My last two loans were thru the Credit Union, they seem a little easier to work with.

Upside down Vic is gone, you got a sweet WG and your loan is down to $8K. And now your bike is worth closer to your loan should things stay tough.
