I had a friend pay his bike off in 3 months and they hit him with a thousand dollar sir charge for paying it off early.

That s..cks. Heard about that before. Best way is to borrow on your home, then you can deduct it on your tax returns.

RE: Harley Payoff

If it makes you feel any better, you insurance costs will go down (in most states) as they charge more to insure and registeryou if there's a leinholder. Another reason to always pay cash and save the $5000 - $8000 in financing/registration/insurance charges.

Sorry - my bad...ah wuz referrin' to higher insurance rates on liened vehicles....never seen that before, since the insurance is for the VALUE of the vehicle, NOT who's gonna be paid for it. If they were chargin' more, ya needa different insurance company.
