I've been riding for nearly 40 years and can remember skull emblems associated with bikers when I was a kid. They are more predominate and "in-your-face" these days but the symbol has actually been around for 100s of years.

Umm Fxxk You douche bag. Because I like to put a couple skulls on my bike, or whatever else, you call me an American Douchebag Wannabe"?? What am I a Wannabe of? I could care less if people like the skulls on my bike or not, I'm not trying to impress anybody with my bike other than make it my own and I want a couple skulls on MY BIKE. I'm not trying to be in a gang or act like I am. Not really sure how you can stereotype people because they like something you don't. You sir sound like the douche bag I'm a badass biker because I can put everybody down for not liking what I like. Get a life.
Looks like ol Greezey has got him one on the hook.

I really do not understand why so many people post questions on the forum when all they have to do look on google.http://www.youmotorcycle.com/history...orcycling.html

Skulls aren't to bad . But now let's talk about nuclear signs , stickers , patches , there must be a bike with some nuclear tins on it .

I have a Tropical Tattoo sticker on my bike. The one with the skull and crossed AR15's. Dammit! I am not a doushe! It really pisses me off if someone thinks I am a doushe! I will kick any bodies *** if they call me a doushe! Dammit, I'm not a doushe ! At least, I don't think I am?
Seriously though the Outlaws MC has been around since the 1930's. So yes I guess skulls are a recent fad. Sure to go out of style any day now.
