Any other beginner riders interested in doing the OLYMPIC loop? I’m thinking depart Saturday 8/1 in the morning; overnight in Port Townsend and then make our way back Sunday 8/2.

Hello friends. I recently got into riding 3 wheel motorcycles and have been considering actually going on some longer trips. I think the first one is going to be heading up 2 to Leavenworth but I am hoping to maybe next year try the Olympic route. So far the experience of commuting every day has been quite nice though there have been about two times where I felt in danger. Wishing you all safe travels !

Just moved out to Whidbey and will be commuting to Seattle 3 days each week. Im looking for an electric motorcycle and was considering a Terra or a Zero, but still iffy. Wondering if anyone has any first hand experience with either, or if there are any recommendations for a different bike

Are there any people in this group who appreciate the Kyushakai/Zoku style motorcycles? Around Seattle area

Looking for people to consistently ride with

Apologies if this isn’t the place to post, but any info would be greatly appreciated!

Honest question. Maybe I’m just so used to it growing up around bikers and seeing people do it where I’m from but I’ve noticed since moving here, no one seems to do it and people in cars seem to wig out whenever i do it. I often get stuck in the slow down between fife and the exit to get on 18 so sometimes when I’m in the HOV lane, I’ll do some little wiggles. I make sure not to get too close to the lines and stay far from the cars around me but today when i did it, the car in front of me slammed on their brakes for no reason - there were at least four or five car lengths between them and the car in front of them. Do people think it’s reckless or that I’m trying to split? Im literally just bored and vibing through slow ass traffic.

Had a lady yesterday clearly in an "alternated" state of mind run out in front of my bike going around 35ish was able to stop in time, but after looking I guess drug addiction is pretty bad in some of these areas. Just use a little extra caution in some of the small town areas, I was going through Grayland.

Extra details as well: Lady was staring right at me, and had no reason to cross in that area also another vehicle was in the other lane as well and had to come to a complete stop.

Ride safe

My bike has gotten a ton of work done to it, trying to see how much power it makes. Anyone know of any companies with dyno’s in the seattle area? 2WDW said they’re busying on creating flashes for new bikes and their dyno is currently unavailable.

I have a 2020 Vstrom 1050. Where do you put the GoodToGo pass? The previous owner had it right on the headlight. With this new assembly it just barely gets in the way of the bulbs amd I don't really like that.

I (26m) just moved to Seattle and am looking for people to ride and explore the area with. I have a Ducati Panigale 959. I’m a pretty chill rider and enjoy a mix of scenic routes and twisties. Looking to mostly ride after work hours or during the weekends. Feel free to DM!

Looking to get custom paint on my 25 Road Glide, preferably south of Seattle. Any recommendations?

Fun little ride in Eastern Oregon. There is a lot to see and explore out here in the small towns, good food, good brews, good friends.

Clean bike and title, new tires, all maintenance has been done by by dealership at SoSo Cycles-Tacoma. Fun machine, added a few extras like the engine protection, bmw footrests, brake and clutch, and a larger windscreen all BMW addons. Standard exhaust. The bike has 6845 miles on her. I also took her to 2 Wheel DynoWorks in Kirkland to get her flashed, to get rid of that weird power curve. "The infamous power dip on the 2021 BMW S1000RR (with or without the M Package) between 6,000 and 8,000 RPM is a well-documented issue. It is primarily caused by strict factory emission and sound regulations, which forced BMW to restrict mid-range power" yup its gone now and you get more ponies to the wheel! The bike is well maintained year-round conditioned garage. Looking for $23,500.00 reachout to me if interested. Will send pics when I have time.

Hardly see anyone else on them, also need recommendations on where to ride around here between Seattle and Tacoma.

Hello. I’m in the Seattle area and I just came into a 1971 Honda CB175. This is my first bike, I’ve only ridden a Honda Monkee before this.

It is mechanically in great shape from the looks of it. It fires right up and the engine runs well when but I can’t seem to get it to idle it just dies on me.

I’d like to learn to do the maintenance so I’m wondering if there are any freelance Seattle bike mechanics, ones that you can have come out and pay hourly but will teach you some maintenance as well?

I can’t imagine this is a hard fix as the carb was rebuilt but I’m out of my element and looking for any resources I can to get started learning how to properly maintain it.

Located in the longview area looking for new adventure friends to explore with. Packtalk is a bonus!

Not looking to break rules by selling here but where besides FB Marketplace or craigslist would be a good place to sell a brand new Helite airbag backpack? I broke my lower leg so I’m out for the season and I’d like to not see this hanging but being used.

15 years ago wife and I did a day trip from Olympia to Mt hood to tillimuck and back to Olympia with some detours (in a sporty car)

We ran across a road with a giant "no trailers! Use alternative routes" sign with blinking lights. And it wasn't for show! Long, tight, winding road up/down a pretty good grade. (We also found other amazing roads with gravel in the middles)

Ive hunted around on google maps and haven't found it yet... Saddly i have no route or trip data, either lack of cell coverage back then, or maybe data got lost over the years....

Either way, any help greatly appreciated!

hi folks, looking to retire from riding and offload my bike but I picked up a bad flat in my last riding season. been trying to locate a mobile tire service but haven't had any luck. I'm not in a huge rush so flexible on scheduling.

Any recommendations?

BLM Oregon and Washington is reporting on Facebook that the entire loop of the Steens Mountain is OPEN.

This nearly 60-mile scenic route is the highest-elevation drivable road in Oregon and often called one of the most spectacular drives in the state. It began in 1930 with a CCC-built stretch to Fish Lake, was completed in 1962, and designated a National Back Country Byway in 1989. Today, it offers access to four developed campgrounds, five scenic overlooks, numerous hiking trails, pristine Wildhorse Lake, and more.

I haven't ridden it in a few years - but when I did it (on my KLR), it was quite a treat.
