Dude that is a helluva find if it is legit. There was a bomber squadron named the "Hells Angles" and early on it was reported that is where that name came from.

I would imagine they would try to buy it from you.

I better not wear my space suit looking outfit around them or those scary NASA M/C bikers might rip it off me then leave me in my underwear and then that biker guy that opened a can of whoopass on me for wearing underwear might see me again and... Damn it never ends in the world of biking, there are so many things to be scared of.

Damn, this thread is hilarious. Seems like anyone that buys a scoot is all of a sudden an MC or 1%'er expert

Buy one and find out.


Hope you don't have a family!

Always be aware of your patches. We attended an event for a fallen 1% a couple years ago, when one of their officers pulled over our club chapters VP, and asked to see the President. Our president had a patch version of the emblem seen on this young ladies t-shirt.



He was very cordial, and asked him why he had a diamond patch. He said it was from Deals Gap. He told him it looked a lot like a 1% patch, and asked if he was willing to die for that patch. The President cut the patch off the vest right there. He did put it back on the next day, but shifted it so it would be squared on the vest.

When you choose a patch that looks similar to any "outlaw" club's patch, just ask yourself, "Are you willing to die for it?" Just remember, you may now want to have anything to do with a M/C, but imagine the road like the ocean, and you are a fish. You may not want to even come near a shark, but like it or not, you are still going to share the sea with them. Do your best to stay clear from them, and don't do anything that draws their attention, and you're more likely to swim away without problems, because once you're eaten, it's all over.

Probably. It's not that bad living in Florida; year round riding, plenty of bars, and more M/Cs than you can shake a stick at. The club that I referred to does have 5 chapters in Ohio: Columbus, Dayton, Sandusky, Toledo, and Warren. They aren't bad guys though, just stay on their good side.

If I'm not mistaken the above referenced MC also has a chapter in Lima, Ohio.

Well, considering there are at least 5 diff clubs that lay claim to this area, that narrows it down a lot
