Conventional wisdom says it’s better to buy over the winter months when dealers are not able to sell as easily when it’s warm and sunny out. I’ve never put this to the test but my opinion is that these seasonal variations are overshadowed by the boom/bust of the economy. Many dealers still have brand new 2009 bikes in stock sitting alongside 2010 and maybe even 2011 bikes. Now is a good time to buy regardless of holidays, even if you are looking at used.
