Best Motorcycles Subreddits (November 2026)

Most motorcycles talk on Reddit happens in a few big places, but the smaller communities are where the specialists are. We checked the communities Reddit returns for “motorcycles” and “motorcycle”, kept the public, safe-for-work ones with at least 25,000 members that are still posting, and ranked the 7 that remain by size. Together they have 5M members.

How the motorcycles communities compare

Membership is concentrated: the three largest communities hold 96% of all members on this list, so most of the motorcycles conversation happens in a handful of places. r/motorcycles is both the biggest and the busiest, with about 92 new posts a day. Per member, the liveliest is r/motorcycle: 55 posts a day from 232.2K members — a smaller crowd, but an engaged one. The oldest is r/motorcycles, founded in 2008, and every community here is more than five years old — this is a long-established corner of Reddit.

Choosing where to post

For beginner questions, r/SuggestAMotorcycle is the natural first stop — it exists for advice, and roughly 12 new threads a day keep it moving. Asking the same thing in r/motorcycles often gets it removed or lost among the 92 daily posts. Rule sets vary: of the communities we have rules for, r/Harley lists 8, against 1 in r/motorcycles, so a post that is fine in one can be removed in another.

A simple rule of thumb: ask questions in the specialised communities and share your best finds in the big ones, where they can reach the most people. Always read the rules in the sidebar first — each community is run by its own volunteer moderators. Our guide to searching Reddit explains how to dig through any of these communities, and the subreddit info tool gives you the stats of one we don't list.
