  "The statement I can't quite figure out is 
  that Sirius gives his bike to Hagrid and tells him that he's not going to need it anymore."
   
  I think it is because it is now clear to him that Peter is the trator and he intends to track him down and kill him (possibly expecting to be killed in the porcess?) 

  "Since he was innocent and had no reason at the time to 
  believe he would be framed for the murders, wouldn't he still want it? " 

  But I think he did expect to be framed for the murders because *everyone* (dubledore) know he was the Potter's secret keeper. When he pursaded James and Lily to change to Peter (IIRC) he also told them not to tell anyone of this decision (possably in an effort to protect the obviuorsly weaker Peter - I think he was trying to use himself as a decoy. Unfortately it back fired *really* badly.)

  "Now I remember in SS/PS that Hagrid tells AD that he has 
  to get the bike back to Sirius.  I'm assuming he didn't feel right keeping the bike regardless of Sirius' words about not wanting it."
     
  I think you are right about this - or maybe he didn't take Sirus at his word - put it down the grief or what ever (would this require more insight that we usually credit Hagrid with?)
