Question about a loan and Bankruptcy?

I filed for Chapter 13 three years ago with a 36 month payback plan, I have almost finished the plan and had a question. I didn’t include my house, I have never been late on my mortgage. Once I am discharged from my bankruptcy I want to apply for about a $7000 loan. I don’t want to refinance my house to get the money. The loan is for a motorcycle. I have a car that I can use as collateral, it’s worth more than $7K and I have the title free and clear.

Do you think even with the fact that I have collateral that is the equivalent to the loan value I will still be charged a crazy interest rate? Any suggestions?
And in case anyone says don’t get the bike….I’m a cancer survivor and disabled veteran, I deserve the darn thing after what I’ve been through.
