This season is the peak time for the tour in Nepal Himalaya and you can also witness several Hindu festivals such as 15 days long Dashain, the biggest festival for all Nepalese, celebrating the triumph of good over evil, and shortly afterward the 5 days long Tihar or Dipawali (Festival of Lights) follows.

In winter snowfall times at higher elevations, the snowline descends considerably, and the weather is cold. So it is an ideal time for bike-riding at lower elevations below 3,000m in the foothills of Nepal with great views of the Himalayas, it can get cold at night and in the mornings, but during the day temperatures are mild when it is sunny.
Spring (March-April- May)
The spring is one of the best seasons for the Motorbike Tour in Nepal Himalaya. Many visitors travel to Nepal in the spring as the tour is fine in all Himalayas regions.

Summer is a good time for keen botanists and forest researchers as the higher valleys and meadows blossom with flowers and lush vegetation. It is not generally recommended to tour during the summer season except in the arid rain shadow areas like Upper Mustang, Dolpo, and Kailash.
