Newcomb's is closed... and for sale.
Another good place to go is the Petersen Automotive Museum. While it's mainly cars, they do have a few interesting bikes on display, including vintage Harleys and even some old school desert runners and Enduro bikes from the old days. They also have some of the first ever motorcycles made on display which are basically old bicycles with a small 1 cylinder engine attached, and there are still pedals on the bike, so it's more like a moped, but still very cool to see.
Plus there are tons of great restaurants in that area, like Canters Deli which was in the movie Swingers, Versailles for authentic Cuban, or if you want to blow money you got restaurant row on La Cienega Blvd with all the top steak houses and such.

If car collections/museums are on your list, check out Motte Historical Car Museum in Sun City, and the Zimmerman in El Segundo.
There's also the Nethercutt, which I have been told is fantastic but I have not been to yet.
Here's a link to a few others that are worth checking out.

If you're looking for 'biker hangouts', there's also:
Pozo Saloon, near Santa Margarita
Lookout Roadhouse, on HWY 74 in Lake Elsinore
Halfway House Cafe, in Santa Clarita
Cold Spring Tavern, just north of Santa Barbara (been around since 1886)
Unfortunately, Hell's kitchen (Ortega HWY) has now closed. They were crushed by the COVID closures, road construction/closures, as well as a recent fire.
