Moto friendly in Peru?
 
I am going to some new places in Peru and am wondering about moto-friendly hostels in a few places. We will need to put the bikes (only 450s and 650s) inside and work on the bikes ourselves there too so it needs to be extra friendly that way:

* Yauri (also known as Espinar, between Cuzco and Arequipa)
* Chivay (along Colca Canyon)
* Cabaconde (also along Colca)
* Camana (on the coast)
* Cerro Azul (on the coast between Lima and Paracas)
* Huancayo (have stayed there, but in a more expensive place)
* Huaraz (lived there, but wasn't motoing then)
* Huamachuco (between Huaraz and Cajamarca)
* Cajamarca (tho some have already suggested places)
* Chachapoyas (same as above)
* Moyobamba
* Tarapoto
* Juanjuy (between Tarapoto and Tingo Maria)
* Andahuaylas (didn't like where we stayed last time)

Some of these are never mentioned in rough/anventure guide books, so HELP! :confused1:

I don´t know any ones in the locations you listed. I do know that Casa Grande in Cusco is great. It is cheap at 20 soles, clean, has a good location, huge courtyard which is perfect for storing and working on the bikes. The staff doesn´t mind you working on your bike either.

Also, I read that you lived in Peru so you have probably seen Machu Pichu, but if you have not you can ride your bikes up to MP taking the route from Cuzco to Pisca and than on to Hydroelectrica where you can store your bikes behind the police station. (pretty safe because it is so remote up there.)
