down here its better to sell coming into summer because there are more buyers so you can hold out for more money. BUT there are more bikes too so competition is also harder to sell.

coming into winter there are less "its hot, lets get bikes" type of buyers. there are more buyers who know what they want and know bikes can be cheaper after summer.

ultimately its time to sell when you have time to sell. before summer you may get a flood of buyers all tyre kicking trying to negotiate where as in winter you'll get serious buyers but less of them.

dealers claim to move more bikes in spring. as do the bike sale stats.

how much will the bike drop in value since it will be technically a year older if you wait?
