Figuring out what your monthly payment on a motorcycle will be is a great way to start shopping for another vehicle. Small adjustments to the numbers above can have a significant impact on the interest you’ll pay over the life of the loan. 

Be sure to select financing that matches your needs and your budget. 

The estimated monthly payment above is for informational purposes only and does not include taxes, tag, and title fees or insurance premiums. 

How To Calculate Your Monthly Motorcycle Payment 

In order to calculate your estimated monthly motorcycle payment, you’ll need to know a few basic numbers, including:

  • The total loan amount (the price of the motorcycle minus your down payment and any trade-ins or incentives). 
  • The APR (annual percentage rate) or interest rate. (i.e. the cost of borrowing)
  • The loan term (how many months you will be repaying the loan over). 

Those numbers will give you the total principal and interest for the motorcycle loan, which you’ll then divide by the length to get your estimated monthly payments. 

You can play around with numbers in the calculator above to figure out what sort of financing will make the most sense for your budget. 

We’ll break down each of the fields in the calculator above so you can better understand what goes into your monthly payment calculation.
