I've been riding Harley's off and on for the past 10 years and recently my brother in law and I have decided that we would like to start our own MC. We're not 1%'s we don't try to be bad *** law breakers but we do love to ride and we love the idea of starting a MC that does charity events and promotes motorcycles. We came up with our logo and want to make our vests and jackets a 3PP. Our colors are not going to be similar to any of the local or notorious MCs but I'm worried we might catch some flack from some of the 1% outlaw clubs out there. Any words of advice would be greatly appreciated.
Make it a one piece patch. No need for a 3PP and it just might keep you out of trouble.
Kowan, those bars could quite possibly be the sweetest thing I've seen on a Rocker before. So if we have a 3PP does that basically mean we are "outlaws" looking for trouble? We both just really like the look of the 3PP but I personally don't want to get my chops busted for no reason.
Thanks. I sent a picture off to Bill at BR Custom bars and the measurements I wanted.
If you respectfully asked about your idea on your club/patch at a local 1% club house, they would suggest you go with a one piece and leave MC off it.
Here's a site worth checking out with information about Riding clubs and Motorcycle clubs. http://www.rcvsmc.net/
I live in a smaller area (200,000) and where I live there isn't any 1% MCs around. Closest place to me that would have a 1% MC is Las Vegas and that's about 2 hours away.
You ought to take the time and read through that site I posted.
Artlee also brought up a good point about checking out any local clubs that help the community.

Have you checked out your local motorcycle rights organization? These groups do a lot regarding charity events and promoting motorcycles.
Yeah, Theres a couple smaller ones and 1 of them I can't belong to because of my religion. (They club won't let me in cause of my beliefs) For the most part we're looking something that just sets the 4 or 5 of us that ride together apart from the rest.
