Motorcycle Clubs Stealing Motorcycles? Dirty Secret

from INSANE THROTTLE / THROTTLE HOUSE · host Insane Throttle Publications

Motorcycle club members stealing motorcycles from Harley-Davidson dealerships? Three members of a Maryland-based MC (including the Gorilla Motorcycle Club chapter) face serious charges after allegedly stealing five bikes worth over $200,000 across Pennsylvania counties. One even pulled a gun on a customer and led police on a high-speed chase.This is exactly why motorcycle clubs get a bad name — hypocrisy and breaking the biker code. Stealing from dealerships hurts everyone (higher prices get passed on to real riders), and robbing a fellow biker at gunpoint? That's straight betrayal with no honor.Plus, Harley-Davidson is already hurting with dealerships closing and sales tanking. Now they're dealing with a major recall on nearly 17,000 2025-2026 Softail motorcycles for dangerous rear brake failure.I don't hate MCs — I’ve been in some — but I hate the hypocrisy that gives the whole scene a black eye. These actions aren't club-sanctioned, but they drag everyone down.What do you think? Should these guys get kicked out on bad standing?
