But when you get there, it's still a BMW - nerdy is a nice polite term for it.

You must be yearning to get your **** kicked, go for it. GOOD LUCK!!! Wear your cut to Sturgis, it'll probably even be funnier.

This may actually take a few meetings before they accept your patch in their AO. Once you gain their recognition, you are golden. I would not wear a three piece patch though without going through these steps. Just make it into a one piece.
Thank you for finally answering my question. I have to wonder about the resident bad-*** senior citizens here making stuff up sometimes because they saw it on the news or read it on a blog. Not offense to the real resident bad-*** senior citizens

BTW, I don't think it is something I would do. But I doubt the pastor wearing bright yellow vest on the beemer is going to get his head stomped. But that is just me. Maybe putting something to do with religion along with the 3-piece would make you a little safer too. Actually, make it "God's M/C". Can't nobody F with Gods crew.

I'd bet that one off patch of yours would be hanging in a 1%er clubhouse by the end of the day. If I'm not mistaken there's a bounty on such things.....with a bonus for blood.

Yup. I bet most of the guys here trash talking the Beemer hardly ride the Harleys they are so fan boi about. A bike is a bike, if its got 2 wheels and goes fast, Im down with it.

$25,000.00 and 10,000 miles don't make you a biker.

Do yourself a favor and Google:Motorcyle club & riding club education. hopefully it will open your eyes to what people have been trying to tell you. to the 1%ers it is not a game or a joke.

Just curious. Is a one-piece patch that is set up like a 3-piece, i.e. Club name on top of a logo/design with a location under it, but all on one patch, still a no-no?
