Well, I just want to park for free as a motorcyclist. Having a motorcycle in between meters is really not preventing the city from earning money from cars.

Here's the real info:
Motorcycles are allowed to park in the triangles at the end of a block, not the beginning of a block (in the direction of travel on that side of the street). This may be why you're confused why some are marked, signed and metered and others are not. They decided that motorcycles on the corners of the beginning of a block is a hazard, thus why we're limited to the end of a block.
Any number of vehicles are permitted to park in a single spot as long as the spot is paid for. Technically by parking "between" spots you're parking in one spot or the other, or if the officer wishes both spots. Thus if the meter is expired in either spot the officer could ticket you.
I park downtown often between cars and have yet to receive a ticket. Even with no cars around I'd still park between spots and hope a car eventually parks in on of the spots and feeds the meter
