Yes. They're all I ride in. Course, they're mostly all I wear! I have some with lugged soles which are good on potentially slippery surfaces and wet leaves and such.
Be careful when riding a motorcycle in any shoes/boots with laces. You'll know what I mean the first time you attempt to put your foot down at a stop and a lace loop gets caught on a footpeg.

Thanks!, Ya I tuck em in but no surefire risk free ride!
I dropped a bike once when the heel came off my Alden's when I put my foot down!! Also, I get shifter peg mark on my Alden's. And I ride in the rain (and thankfully only once in the snow), so I need something weather proof, so now I wear regular motorcycle boots.
Occasionally when I'm riding somewhere where I'll be walking/hiking/standing for awhile and I'm not packing alternative footwear, I will break out the Aldens.
Yes, nice Triumph!
Oh, here's an old picture where I'm wearing Alden's!

Cured that problem. I'm not worried about bike specific boots but I ride everyday and sometimes I want to wear something a little nicer. There are a couple of different versions of these now, but this was the only one when I bought it.
