Hi everyone! I started working in the hall of justice building and Im trying to figure out the motorcycle parking situation, I see some bikes parked on the sidewalk by grandpark and some lots that let you park for 20 a day... I was wondering if y'all know any free motorcycle parking down there or if the sidewalk thing is viable? Thanks!

Saw this on another sub in case you haven't seen the map.

The first set of LADOT Speed Safety Systems will go live on October 26, 2026.

Here's the LADOT site with info and map of camera locations.

Saw this in downtown, 4th place and San Pedro.

All bikes and riders are welcome to join in.

You can DM me here or at @socal_boltriders for more info.

Are you missing a muffler? Found one on the sidewalk at Santa Monica and Las Palmas yesterday. I recognized it wasn't just another piece of junk, so I grabbed it thinking the owner would want it back. I placed a found ad on craigslist but no response yet. Thought I'd try here. If this is the wrong place to post this, let me know and steer me to the correct location. Thank you!

I am considering upgrading to some waterproof riding gear. I may even get new tires. I am curious what the general vibe is out there. Anyone preparing? Are we a reactionary bunch?

Anybody know of reasonable ADV bike rentals. I know the ride share website but most of those bikes have very low mileage allowed and 75 cents on every mile over the low limit.

I basically just ride to work. On weekends ride PCH. I know there's other spots... Where do people frequent besides canyons.

The homie and I were riding down the 710 to LB when we caught up to a chick on a CFMoto that looks a lot like my bike, a vulcan 650. Either she thought we were cool, or she noticed that I'm also a chick, but she joined us for the bit. Keeping up with us, slowing down with us.

But I was kinda sad when she split off to the bridge at the end of the 710 and us to downtown LB. Say you didnt have plans, would you join two random people who were waving at you to join?

WTB: Used Honda CB300R with ABS in Southern California

I’m in Orange County looking for a used Honda CB300R with ABS, preferably a 2022–2024. I’d also consider a 2019–2021 with ABS confirmed on that specific bike, or a well-priced 2025. My target is roughly $2,500–$4,000 for a clean, road-ready bike I can inspect in person.

This will be my first motorcycle. At 5'5", I want something light and manageable at a stop, but capable of freeway riding. The CB300R fits that combination unusually well for me. I also plan to carry it on my RV once I’ve verified the carrier setup, so a heavier bike isn’t an easy substitute. ABS is a firm requirement for me as a new rider.

I’m focusing on used CB300Rs from 2019 onward because they offer the modern bike I want at a price that can make sense compared with buying new. I’m especially interested in 2022–2024 examples. For a 2019–2021, I’d need to verify ABS on the actual bike; for a 2025, the used price would need to be compelling.

I’m looking for a clean California title in the seller’s name with no lien, a quiet stock or mostly stock setup, and no significant crash damage or major work due. Normal cosmetic wear is fine. I can make a worthwhile same-day trip from OC around SoCal, including San Diego, the Inland Empire, Ventura/Santa Barbara, the Coachella Valley, and Bakersfield.

If you have one or know someone considering selling, please message me the year, mileage, city, asking price, title and registration status, plus any drops, modifications, or recent maintenance. Photos would be great. I’m happy to arrange an in-person look with a motorcycle-savvy friend if it sounds like a fit. Thanks!

P.S. ChatGPT helped me organize and word this post. I am very much a real human person; my eccentric post history should provide ample evidence.

24k miles.
Bike has new S22 tires, new fork seals, new battery, fresh fluids, graves headers with yoshi exhaust, CRG levers, and power commander 5. I have a gold impac tech crash bar too for it. Give offers. Bike has been well taken care of.

So I bought a chain that was 128 links turns out the bike needed a 129 link chain so after altering the chain it’s 1 link too long and giving me some serious slack. I’d like for someone to maybe alter the axel tension anything to get rid of the serious slack. Also I was foolish enough to remove pins that didn’t need to be change and put them back in but unsure if I did them in the correct order. The bike runs but I noticed the battery died out after not using the bike for 6 days maybe I’m simply not charging the bike long enough. It’s a Lifan kpr 200. I can’t really ride the bike out to a shop considering the bike is without tags at the moment.

Sup dudes, I got this jacket a year ago and unfortunately I've gained enough weight to where its too tight to wear. Maybe theres someone out there who lost enough weight to make it too loose on them?

In either case Im posting here to see if anyone wants to swap jackets. I've got an L, and you've hopefully got an XL. Let me know!

Thank you!

Any groups around east la to north oc? I ride a 99 Suzuki intruder 1500 (cruiser) and looking for some friends I can ride with

Hey LA Moto squad, are you familiar with any light to moderate off roading near Santa Monica or in Malibu? I moved to the area recently and although I've ridden up the canyons a few times already, I haven't found any dirt roads.

Do you take a ticket on your way in or go around the bar? I was looking at Santa Monica Parking Structures 5, 6, and 8. Thanks

Have it listed everywhere (Facebook, OfferUp, even Craigslist) and no bites. Figured I’d try here too… asking $3,500 OBO, 15k miles, regular maintenance and no issues. Thanks
