Harley-Davidsons and Hell’s Angels go together like no other combination. That’s not to say or imply that only Hell’s Angels ride Harleys. But is it the bike of choice of the Angels?


Quote from the article:

For a fascinating insight, Sonny Barger, former president of the Oakland Hell’s Angel chapter and easily the best known of all Angels, reveals how the Angels decided on Harley for their machines. “Unlike today, they didn’t have much choice. In 1975 it was either ride a Harley or settle for a Triumph or BSA. They’d already stopped building Indians. It’s always been important for Hell’s Angels to ride American-made machines. “In terms of pure workmanship, personally I don’t like Harleys. I ride them because I’m in the club and that’s the image but if I could I would seriously consider riding a Honda ST1100 or BMW.
