Club/Thug style Sportster?
#21
Who stepped on the dogs tail? Barking like crazy. Bud I told you what I thought of the name not the style of bike. I like the last 2 you got besides the fairing. I think its a fad that will be like a wide tire bike but that's my 2 cents. You asked what someone constitutes as one but then go all gangsta talk after a few don't know wtf you are really talking about.

Look, if the thread was how to install a fork bag or flip your mirrors or which headlight bulb is best or check out my new short shots I'd say your input is much needed. But I've read through your posts and the other barking dogs that have posted here and honestly I'm not sure why you even stopped here. Just to up your post count? The mods are probably gonna lock this due to our lame *** bickering so hopefully someone will post some decent pics soon. If not ah well, one more attempt at a decent thread gone south.

Girls, GIRLS!!! LOL. Between the macho bull$hit spewed by guys who'll rip your head off if you look at them the wrong way and the panti-liner wearin' Monostat 7 addicts I see here lately on a daily basis with their easily bruised manginas, it's getting difficult to come here and participate! WTF is going on with this place!!?? Are we men or freakin' pansies??!! Threads go sideways all the time...so what?! This ain't nobody's personal playground, so if you don't like something someone has to say, either start up your own discussion board or get over it! What sense does it make to get your panty's all up in a bunch, over some stupid crap? You mean not everyone aligns with your persective? O.M.G. Are you that sensitive?? Man the F up people!!!
I'll just watch the thread devolve further, it's rather entertaining !!
Oh all I know about the bikes you're inquiring about is what I heard once on the internet...that these club and thug bikes are usually found parked in front of places like the Blue Oyster Bar...you're not a cop, are you?

My guess is a small group of Sportster and/or Dyna riders make their bikes look a certain way and call them club/thug bikes and to them it makes sense but to an old guy like myself it just looks like a Harley fixed up the way the owner wanted it.
I find it funny when someone posts on the forums and then they don't get the responses they hoped for, it isn't because others are being mean typically it is because they have no clue on what the hell the poster is saying or trying to relay, I have to agree with Drewbone on this one- if you wear your feelings on your shoulder be prepared to have them knocked off once in a while. The photo Drew put up is exactly what I thought of when I heard the term club/thug... sorry - Just being honest!

Biltwell seat is narrow, but I dig that. Super low profile. It is like every other seat I have had, about 500 miles on it and you will love it. Takes a little getting used to but once it breaks in it is sweet. I ride 2up a lot on it and it is fine, my girl doesn't slide around or complain, done a 300 mile trip with her on the back and she never bitched.
Quick disclaimer: I weigh 155lbs and my girl weighs 96lbs, so I cannot confirm that every girl will like it. I can run my burly slammer shocks with both of us two up and never bottom out, so someone with more weight might hate riding on it.

Club or thug bike refers to the styling he mentioned! T- bars with small fairing! The look that motorcycle clubs (OMG) in Cali have used for countless years to assist with driving conditions!
Mids are often (always) part of this. High slender bars that clear side mirrors, mids for control, and the fairing to help as the bike is used short and long haul. Traffic and lane splitting on a bike requires a certain styling for practical purposes. It was an evolution to get there.
This look has been made well known due to SOA but the look was around years before SOA was even a thought in Kurt Sutter's mind. The west coast HA inspired and influenced the look of bikes in real life and on this show.
The bike is normally a Dyna when discussing the "thug/club" bike. Personally "thug" isn't a great term but "club" would be more accurate. It really only has meaning to those that follow or pay attention to the OMG world.
McGruff's bike is as close as I've seen a sportster get.
