*_I love riding alone. Some people listen to music when out on a long lonely stretch. I love to just think. I'm a deep thinker. I go to bed a bit earlier in order to enjoy my own company, work things out in my head, my faith, family, etc. I really enjoy this channel. Its always good to know this info_*
The best way to leave a club is to make sure you don't owe the club any money and to return all property, then have a conversation with the president & vp on what going on. Once your gone keep all club business learned to yourself.
Motorcycle clubs fascinate me just like the mafia does but I’ve never been interested in joining either one. It’s just interesting to me that so many people can come together for a “common cause”.
Would you please be so kind not using the term mafia for MC s ? An mc is not similar to mafia. This is one of the worst ressentiments against biker . MotorBikers dont kill but sometimes get killed.
I think the end says it all, when I left there was some hard feelings no matter if I was out good or not, most clubs have the mentality you are either with us, or against us, no matter which way you leave most of them won't contact you or acknowledge you anymore. If you retire that's different, our club was 10 years before you could retire, after a few years of retirement half the faces in the club will be new and you probably won't recognise them, clubs are constantly evolving and changing, guys come and go, it's life.
It's all advice. You can take it or leave it. Unfortunately I don't know anything about this topic. But sounds logical. I appreciate you taking the time to post
Nice job as always. Thanks for putting out some good info from real life experience. You became a 1% for your job, but you still had to walk the walk and talk the talk to get patched in.
I had an informant who used to be a chapter president in one of the big 4. He left in good standing but then got involved with crack. When the MC found out, they put a bounty on him because he still had the club tattoo and the club wanted it back. Luckily for him, he died before they got to him. Well done Fingers.
I happen to have a family member who was forced for financial reasons to leave a club. The club itself never kicked him out and he is out good but I do think it’s worth noting there’s times where leaving a club is not something you have much choice in. In this particular case his job transferred him to an out of territory area several hours away given he was already barely surviving he couldn’t afford to just quit his job and stay in the area.
Hey fingers good advice as always you do know the ins and outs, is why I watch you, As long as we all evolve forward in a positive manner it's all good yesterday was just that yesterday and it's gone. Thank you for your advice and your contacts enjoy your show I'll ring the bell when I watch your program keep us all in touch see you later fingers.
Well explained and well filmed but somehow by the the middle of the video I couldn’t stop laughing because of all the debts, permissions, the suggestions, the articles that need to be returned etc... but wow thanks man this was a very well explained video ! :) ( don’t quit a on bad day ) .
Thanks Fingers. I had a neighbor briefly, a year ago. I nicknamed him Junkyard. He tried to intimidate me by telling me he was former OMG and that he was out bad. So bad according to him that that was the reason for the security cameras on the outside front and back of his unit. He was supposedly kicked out of a 1% chapter somewhere in California in the 70's or maybe 80's. At any rate, what doesn't add up is he said they took his bike but he still has his patches. To me that means he ran. And he makes it sound like after all these years his fear and cameras are justified, because whatever club this was or is, they're still hunting him down to get their rockers back. Also of note this is a guy wearing a Vietnam War "Era" veteran hat, hoping at first glance that people see the Vietnam part, don't look past it, and gain sympathy and respect where none is due. He didn't serve overseas in any war. This us the type if low life scum that give troubled vets and 1% clubs a bad name, using his past association to try to come off as dominant to anyone that doesn't like what he does and stands up to him. There's a Pagans bar one town over from me and oh how I'd love to be able to get close enough to one of those guys long enough to explain that there's someone from another club that probably still exists and he's threatening people in their territory. I'd love to see Junkyard's reaction to this all becoming real and him ending up as a statistic of "Everybody's a tough guy til the meet one." Total jack nut.
I wouldn't involve another club. If you have some business to handle with this guy, TCB yourself. Otherwise it sounds like just a blow hard tough guy to me. He may have real concern for security if he did in fact screw the club over bad enough. However, anymore clubs seem to be backing off some of that. Hell, we had one here that got jammed up, cooperated with LE, went to prison, got out, moved right back home, opened several of his old business' and then started his own club. he didn't ask either. he's still doing just fine.
Interesting. I hear you in the TCB part, it's just his I feel and sometimes what I envision happening. Funny thing is, he moved out right after us, and moved to the same different town. It's also funny that really he's a "more car" 99% a-hole/0% freedom rider. Anyway, it's going to be a long cold winter, I'll be checking out more of your content. Thanks for your efforts and real world input, it's very helpful.

That ending story was really interesting heck it can make for a good movie or tv show
I'm speaking in generalities here but yes, they abide by most of the same rules as the rest of the club. They don't have a structured clubhouse in the traditional sense, but attend club meetings at the closest clubhouse they are by. Dues are set by a national or regional level for club nomads. Again, every club has some tweaks to their Nomads but for the most part, their no different. I know a club or two that uses their nomads as an enforcement arm of the club but even that is not too typical. Thanks for watching and commenting.
The only club I ever joined was the Marines. After that I’ve never had a desire to prove anything to anybody to be part of something. Real brothers are made in combat. After that wearing patches to be part of a “ club” seems ridiculous.
So why do you have to cover up the tattoos if you where a proud member at one point? Like for example I was in the military and it's common to get your units badge tattooed and wear it with pride after you've finished service?
Wow another great video. I love the Italian music in the background. I watch a lot of shows like Sacred Steel with the Douche Larouche MC. It looks like fun but I can't commit to something like that. The club is first and foremost and that's just not me. I love the brotherhood but it comes before anything else and that's just not right at least for me.
This man's telling the truth if your leaving a club you hand in everything to do with the club most full patch members don't leave there club there your family
Depending on the club, that could have bad side effects. If it's a small, not super serious club. They may be mad but probably won't do much but talk smack. The bigger 1%er clubs? God forgives, they don't. They have a pretty good sized network to aid finding people as well.
Great video, but what about club members contacting the person who leaves? Are they told that the leaving member is essentially "dead" to the club? New sub here!
Every club is different but there is generally a cooling off period to where only certain member or two is allowed to have contact with the departing member. This also generally has a time frame. After that, it depends on how the former member went out (good or bad standing) If the member went out bad, yeah, he's not to be dealt with in any good way.
To quit our club just turn in ur cut. Say whats going on. Your a man and a brother and we generally respect your wishes and ask you to cover your tattoos.
my club is the same way. only difference is that anyone who gets out good, their tattoos have to have a start and end date showing the year they left. If someone gets out bad, it must be covered or removed.
It is like in 99% life ... If I get out of something no matter if it is a club, association, job, hobby, sports, army and etc ... I do it clean, means that I never blow up the bridges behind me ... My grandfather learned me this and it's a lot more funny if you can come everywhere than if you need to hide ...
I must say it depends on the bridge you left behind. Some bridges you can blow up and some can be left behind just in case. I have burned few bridges down in my life and it felt it was right thing to do.
Depends on the club. Some will, some will knock you back to probate and yes, some will make you prospect again and generally it be much harder the second time around. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I'm sure it's been done. The problem I've seen is people are very much creatures of habit. Meaning if they lived a biker lifestyle they are most likely going to be in that circle again somewhere else. If they do continue in the lifestyle, the chances of being found by an large, well organized club goes up. It's simply better to go out the right way and not have to deal with the "look behind you" problem. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@quetzalcoatul1 You have no obligations as a hang around and issues like that is why you are a hang a round in the first place, to see if this is for you or not and if not you owe nothing and noone owe you anything. Stop beeing a hang a round, that's it.
@@MrKveite1 I told the fella I can't do it right now. He took it pretty good. Thought I'd have to speak to all the officers haha was nervous. Unlike a street gang. Way different. Street gang would probably kick the ass and leave you wherever they did it at
It depends on which chapter you are trying to leave. I learned that throughout their chapters some are full of older, laid back type of 1%ers and they are more lenient. Clubs like the Florida Clubs will absolutely smoke you for trying to leave. You'd be very lucky not to get smoked with Florida Outlaws.
Interesting. I had two stints in the US military. I am not a military retiree. It is possible to retire under 40 yrs. of age. Military culture, someone in their 30's is getting up there. Interesting, in Outlaw MCs and OC Families, one can be active and still a soldier at middle age. Enjoy this topic with Fingers and a couple of other guys that feature it on RUclips. It is tough. I see both sides; never fitting in with society; myself, much like1% MCs. But I cannot say, I am totally that; because I lived straighter than straight; attained a high level security clearance in the military. So, I probably would not have anything in common with 1%ers. Men yearn for family or brotherhood. Yes, it is in the military but only in combat arms units, special operations (each branch has unique units), or the Army's Special Forces, or pilots.
Tris - Thanks for your service. If your clearance is high then yes, you're probably going by the book for the most part. You may be surprised by some 1%er with the same status though. I have a few that I work with currently as a private contractor that have top clearance. (I'm not telling you to join, just saying there are some out there.) The brotherhood thing is pretty thin in my opinion. I agree that the combat unit guys have a connection far greater than many I've seen. The brotherhood does exist, but not to the degree that's advertised.
I had the “best” reason to quit the club…my engine blew up. And not having a full time job and the clubs 30 day down period, I really didn’t have a choice.
Phil - I mean no disrespect by this but, if I had brother who needed help to get their scooter back up to remain in the club I would do whatever I could to help that brother. I’d probably have to question the brotherhood of your former club. Again, no disrespect intended.
@@FingersFew Oh I’ve thought this same thing for years. What’s worse is, my leather jacket, my belt with the club name and my transmission wound up “missing”. It made me think WTF! But that was in the early 70s. Things could be, might be, probably are different now. I don’t know. And no disrespect taken at all.
Tyler - I hung around a lot of clubs before I became a cop. I was a "hang around" for one and wasn't impressed, so I walked away. After getting into law enforcement, I was in a club (it wasn't considered a "cop club") to which I became VP of the club. In my undercover stint of 15 years I was an undercover agent assigned to infiltrate one of the big four 1%er clubs. That case for me , lasted about 18 months. It's still an open case. After that, I managed to do cases against three other clubs mostly involving narcotics, human trafficking and motorcycle theft rings. As well as several clubs having connections to traditional organized crime and white supremacy groups. I was again assigned to infiltrate another 1%er club (not well known outside it's region) due to it's connection to law enforcement and police corruption. I became a chapter president in that case. It too, is still open (as far as I know). To answer your first question as to if I will ever talk about what clubs by name? I didn't see the need for that in the beginning. I didn't start the channel to ignite any past differences. Only to share and hopefully educate people on a truthful manner. I try to be un-bias, and not let anyone or anything sway me from that. To give an honest answer, yes, I do see a day when I will give club names and talk very openly about certain events in more detail. I only say this because some other channels have become so dishonset in their content and the way they operate. Everything from having numerous fake accounts to generate views but to trying to start comments in the way to make people have slighted views. The biker life I grew up with was one of honor, honesty and class. However, for now, I don't see the need. Thanks for watching and commenting. Sorry for the long version. lol
@@FingersFew wow! Honor honesty and class. I'm not sure what your playing at but this is all very confusing to me. So you have your mug all over you tube and you worked/are working on open cases in the courts? You friend are delusional as can be as far as I can see. . .
@@Hustler1_ well getting into law enforcement now is a good time since there’s a lot of agencies hiring. Definitely keep pushing yourself to achieve fitness goals ( it’ll come in handy later) and test for any agency you find interesting. NEVER give up! Keep testing and you’ll land a position.
just be Aware if you Do Everything RIGHT and you are told you are out GOOD, Don't be Surprised if you are out bad sometime down the Road, lately that happens ALOT !!
@@FingersFew beside the Famous Case of 81's GC i know 3 guys here members of a club been around since 73 and all of them Stand up guys, and All Out Good, till someone in the club got pissy about something and changed it to out bad
Why in the hell would you go through all the probation periods with sometimes no sleep and your at hands and feet anytime the club needs you. Just to get patched in. Just to turn around and get out later. I would say that would be a definite ass kicking from the club members before you left for good. Their is no getting out with some of your big clubs besides death. Once your in your in for good. Unless your a snitch.
Gary - I know a lot of 1%ers from many of the big four clubs in the world who left without incident. There is no truth to if you join in you're in forever.
The Civilian: I think u know your “business”, since u said u belonged to several traditional clubs. Most of the info I have concerning this topic comes from books like the Rebels and Out Bad, written by Edward Winterhalder, a former Bandido. What u said matches up with what they said about that topic. I know who u are talking about when u referred to the MC leader who was put out bad by HA. I saw his series on the History Channel: George Christie.
The full title of Winterhalder’s book is Out In Bad Standing.. It chronicles his Bandidos MC career and the politics that put him out bad. The Rebels was written by a Canadian sociology professor is about the biker lifestyle from a sociology point of view. The good professor was allowed to ride with a MC club called the Rebels for a period of time for the purpose of writing a book about the biker lifestyle. Don’t know if the Rebels are still around, I read they got patched over by one of the majors.
if your gonna quit a club, Pull your pants up stand up in church state your reasons for leaving and so be it. A club don’t want ppl that don’t want to be there. Like the gentleman said if you have that logo and club gear return it that night. Tattoo do not black it out any tattoo till the club decides that’s destruction of club property. All clubs are different but I have seen long time members quit and keep tattoos. If you leave a club in good standings and respectable there should be no issues. Definitely make sure no issues at all going on, now if y’all got any kind of Heat or trouble and you try to leave that might play out differently.
How does a drug infested, alcoholic, bipolar, fringe, gang based society follow such rules? I'd be more inclined to believe that in or out status is not quite so involved as it would be impossible to get together a sober council of advisors.
J - in some clubs, you’re correct. However if you look at clubs that have endured the test of time, wars with other clubs and the pursuit from the federal government, it’s not by luck. I’ve met and have gotten to know some club members who don’t drink, use drugs or have never been convicted of a crime. If fact, some would have been great CEOs for large corporations had their schooling been up to par with a formal degree. Yes, some clubs are about criminal activity. Some about freedom and having fun. Others have nearly perfected the club lifestyle. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@FingersFew OK, tnx. I guess it could happen with no financial interests. But I don't think it would matter to anyone if they quit the club unless they were a potential loose cannon with information.
Too many fucking rules, regulations, do’s and don’ts in an MC. After I retired I was determined to not have to follow anyone’s orders but mine anymore so I knew I had to leave the Club. Lucky for me I got cancer and they let me go out good.
This should be good........ Cause I've done this..... And 2 minutes in I'm thinking You cant be boring and be a good outlaw. I can't remember it anyway I think it might be time to start my own RUclips story time. Because when I left my club..... ...... there was bones broken, blood spilled, shots fired and six digits chopped up and sorted out. And I'm not boring. And frankly im very handsome. Well, I strike masculine presence anyway. Ok I'm In. I'm doing my own damn video.

Do you need to be patched for a certain amount of time before you can transfer? Academic interest.

But I cannot say, I am totally that; because I lived straighter than straight; attained a high level security clearance in the military. So, I probably would not have anything in common with 1%ers. Men yearn for family or brotherhood. Yes, it is in the military but only in combat arms units, special operations (each branch has unique units), or the Army's Special Forces, or pilots.
Tris - Thanks for your service. If your clearance is high then yes, you're probably going by the book for the most part. You may be surprised by some 1%er with the same status though. I have a few that I work with currently as a private contractor that have top clearance. (I'm not telling you to join, just saying there are some out there.)
The brotherhood thing is pretty thin in my opinion. I agree that the combat unit guys have a connection far greater than many I've seen. The brotherhood does exist, but not to the degree that's advertised.
I had the “best” reason to quit the club…my engine blew up. And not having a full time job and the clubs 30 day down period, I really didn’t have a choice.
Phil - I mean no disrespect by this but, if I had brother who needed help to get their scooter back up to remain in the club I would do whatever I could to help that brother. I’d probably have to question the brotherhood of your former club. Again, no disrespect intended.

Oh I’ve thought this same thing for years. What’s worse is, my leather jacket, my belt with the club name and my transmission wound up “missing”. It made me think WTF! But that was in the early 70s. Things could be, might be, probably are different now. I don’t know. And no disrespect taken at all.
This may seem a bit of a stupid question but will you ever reveal what clubs you were part of and if not how many clubs were you in?
Tyler - I hung around a lot of clubs before I became a cop. I was a "hang around" for one and wasn't impressed, so I walked away.
After getting into law enforcement, I was in a club (it wasn't considered a "cop club") to which I became VP of the club.
In my undercover stint of 15 years I was an undercover agent assigned to infiltrate one of the big four 1%er clubs. That case for me , lasted about 18 months. It's still an open case. After that, I managed to do cases against three other clubs mostly involving narcotics, human trafficking and motorcycle theft rings. As well as several clubs having connections to traditional organized crime and white supremacy groups.
I was again assigned to infiltrate another 1%er club (not well known outside it's region) due to it's connection to law enforcement and police corruption. I became a chapter president in that case. It too, is still open (as far as I know).
To answer your first question as to if I will ever talk about what clubs by name? I didn't see the need for that in the beginning. I didn't start the channel to ignite any past differences. Only to share and hopefully educate people on a truthful manner. I try to be un-bias, and not let anyone or anything sway me from that. To give an honest answer, yes, I do see a day when I will give club names and talk very openly about certain events in more detail. I only say this because some other channels have become so dishonset in their content and the way they operate. Everything from having numerous fake accounts to generate views but to trying to start comments in the way to make people have slighted views. The biker life I grew up with was one of honor, honesty and class.
However, for now, I don't see the need.
Thanks for watching and commenting. Sorry for the long version. lol
@@FingersFew wow! Honor honesty and class. I'm not sure what your playing at but this is all very confusing to me. So you have your mug all over you tube and you worked/are working on open cases in the courts? You friend are delusional as can be as far as I can see. . .
You not gonna sit ther and bullshit huh?!?
@@FingersFew I had no idea you were a cop, I’ve always wanted to be one, any advice ln that field??? Currently stuck running the 1.5mile to get in
@@Hustler1_ well getting into law enforcement now is a good time since there’s a lot of agencies hiring. Definitely keep pushing yourself to achieve fitness goals ( it’ll come in handy later) and test for any agency you find interesting. NEVER give up! Keep testing and you’ll land a position.
Lol i was just watching your “ how to join a mc” video
Thanks for watching X2!
What is up with the clarinet music???
I thought it was an accordion.
just be Aware if you Do Everything RIGHT and you are told you are out GOOD, Don't be Surprised if you are out bad sometime down the Road, lately that happens ALOT !!
That does seem to be a tend as of late. I'm not sure why.
@@FingersFew beside the Famous Case of 81's GC i know 3 guys here members of a club been around since 73 and all of them Stand up guys, and All Out Good, till someone in the club got pissy about something and changed it to out bad
Dont quit, just go Nomad.
What I Ponder is how you can be FREE and belong to a group... Or is Freedom simply the alure ... I wish and pray all Freedom.
Why in the hell would you go through all the probation periods with sometimes no sleep and your at hands and feet anytime the club needs you. Just to get patched in. Just to turn around and get out later. I would say that would be a definite ass kicking from the club members before you left for good. Their is no getting out with some of your big clubs besides death. Once your in your in for good. Unless your a snitch.
Gary - I know a lot of 1%ers from many of the big four clubs in the world who left without incident. There is no truth to if you join in you're in forever.
Are you talking about George?
Yes sir.
''Never shit on your own doorstep''
The Civilian: I think u know your “business”, since u said u belonged to several traditional clubs. Most of the info I have concerning this topic comes from books like the Rebels and Out Bad, written by Edward Winterhalder, a former Bandido. What u said matches up with what they said about that topic. I know who u are talking about when u referred to the MC leader who was put out bad by HA. I saw his series on the History Channel: George Christie.
The full title of Winterhalder’s book is Out In Bad Standing.. It chronicles his Bandidos MC career and the politics that put him out bad. The Rebels was written by a Canadian sociology professor is about the biker lifestyle from a sociology point of view. The good professor was allowed to ride with a MC club called the Rebels for a period of time for the purpose of writing a book about the biker lifestyle. Don’t know if the Rebels are still around, I read they got patched over by one of the majors.
David - Yep, I know the book. Mr. Winterhalder and I have had more than one sit down together. Thanks for commenting.
if your gonna quit a club, Pull your pants up stand up in church state your reasons for leaving and so be it. A club don’t want ppl that don’t want to be there.
Like the gentleman said if you have that logo and club gear return it that night. Tattoo do not black it out any tattoo till the club decides that’s destruction of club property.
All clubs are different but I have seen long time members quit and keep tattoos. If you leave a club in good standings and respectable there should be no issues.
Definitely make sure no issues at all going on, now if y’all got any kind of Heat or trouble and you try to leave that might play out differently.
@@SIN-oz1kx - thanks for adding to the conversation. Great points. Thanks for watching.
He has also said that he was a former cop/FBI task force and worked in private intelligence gathering.....so take what he says from that perspective.
Lol you're talking about George Christy about the guy out west who was out good and then was out bad
Looks like Donnie Baker's River Confessions.....
How does a drug infested, alcoholic, bipolar, fringe, gang based society follow such rules? I'd be more inclined to believe that in or out status is not quite so involved as it would be impossible to get together a sober council of advisors.
J - in some clubs, you’re correct. However if you look at clubs that have endured the test of time, wars with other clubs and the pursuit from the federal government, it’s not by luck. I’ve met and have gotten to know some club members who don’t drink, use drugs or have never been convicted of a crime. If fact, some would have been great CEOs for large corporations had their schooling been up to par with a formal degree. Yes, some clubs are about criminal activity. Some about freedom and having fun. Others have nearly perfected the club lifestyle.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@FingersFew OK, tnx. I guess it could happen with no financial interests. But I don't think it would matter to anyone if they quit the club unless they were a potential loose cannon with information.
How to quit a motorcycle club in one easy step:
Step 1.
Rat out the men you call brother.
Lol I don't know about easy
@@JCem8409 so what you're saying is, stepping off the roof is easy, its hitting the ground that sucks. 😁
@@alleyoop4465 I'd rather do that survival chances are higher 😂
Snitches gets stitches! Lol
Actually 85% do.
lets be honest. who searched this?
Me, i searched this channel... Does it count?
my buddy stuck a 357 in the prisadents face and said im out or ur dead cuz they said u aint gettin out he got out lol
SOA inspired endless poser clubs.
Sounds like leaving a sect to me.
Ventura Ca
Too many fucking rules, regulations, do’s and don’ts in an MC. After I retired I was determined to not have to follow anyone’s orders but mine anymore so I knew I had to leave the Club. Lucky for me I got cancer and they let me go out good.
George wasn’t wrong about Sonny.
I'm assuming you heard the George and ventura pd tapes?
a narc telling people now to join a mc/ironic or laughfable?
Just keep calling in sick
lol. There is that.
Cool video, not crazy about the background music, too distracting
Thanks for the feedback and for watching.
Or, say...I'm really a cop, please don't hit me.
hahahahahahahaha
I thought this was a gta tutorial
Should only be one way.....
In a fuckin pine box...
N.O.D
Does that go for marriage too?
@@FingersFew thats top of the list man..
Don't join in the first place
ROFL.... Is this satire? Seems like a lot of drama coming from grown men.
This should be good........
Cause I've done this.....
And 2 minutes in I'm thinking
You cant be boring and be a good outlaw.
I can't remember it anyway
I think it might be time to start my own RUclips story time.
Because when I left my club.....
...... there was bones broken, blood spilled, shots fired and six digits chopped up and sorted out. And I'm not boring. And frankly im very handsome. Well, I strike masculine presence anyway.
Ok I'm In. I'm doing my own damn video.
Please don’t love this comment, just let it be.
