Buy (used) in fall or spring?

I'd wait until spring to start insurance. It's a long ways away and anything could happen in the meantime and for this reason it's best not to be paying insurance on it while it sits.

Starting a motorcycle policy in the fall and then cancelling it in the spring will end up with the greater majority of the premiums refunded, so there's not really a downside.
 
OP. Did you call your insurance to see what the price/effect would be on policy in doing a switch NOW instead of waiting until spring? Might be worth a call to see if you can ride it instead of it sitting in your place.
 
Having purchased several motorcycles over the years, IMHO the best time to buy is right after the first snow of the winter.
The snow will not generally last on the ground very long, but its a sign to sellers to accept a reasonable price now.
Or wait until spring.
Some years you may get another two or three weeks of riding after the first snow melts.
