How Do Motorcycle Clubs Make Money?
1.1 Motorcycle Club Registration Fees
The most common way motorcycle clubs make money is through club registration fees. When someone applies to become a member of a motorcycle club, he or she is charged a registration fee.
1.2 Monthly Motorcycle Club Fee
The treasurer is responsible for collecting the monthly club fee. The expenses are first calculated by the treasurer and then divided by the total number of club members. This means that every member of a motorcycle club must pay equally to keep the motorcycle club running.
If a motorcycle club has other sources of income or businesses, the monthly motorcycle club fee is lowered. Most motorcycle clubs make sure that riders who want to join have a stable source of income.
1.3 Through Social Media Platforms
Social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube are widely used by influencers to earn money. There are content creators who make informational, instructional, or fun videos to engage with the public.
Motorcycle club patch members are the most experienced riders. They share their knowledge with the public which can be helpful for newer riders. Patch members can create a fan base on social media platforms that could improve their motorcycle club’s reputation.
1.4 Events
Sometimes motorcycle clubs organize events to raise money. These events can be big or small depending on the size of a motorcycle club and how much money they are willing to spend. These events include concerts, motorcycle races, and fun days. Motorcycle clubs charge an entrance fee to earn income from the attendees. These events can include parties and shows in which motorcycle riders perform stunts and demonstrate their riding skills. Such events even attract non-motorcyclists and non-club members. Some motorcycle clubs also organize events to raise money for charities.
1.5 Rallies
Because rallies are big events to organize, not all motorcycle clubs can afford to organize them. A rally is not a single-day event; it is possible for a rally to last almost a week. Rallies typically occur once or twice per year.
Rallies are a good opportunity for motorcycle clubs to make good money because rallies include parties, food, gatherings, performing stunts, motorcycle exhibitions, and motorcycle racing. Rallies attract plenty of motorcycle enthusiasts which means motorcycle clubs can earn a lot in admission fees.
1.6 Motorcycle Shops Business
Some motorcycle club members own motorcycle shops that offer services like maintenance, repairing, building, painting, and/or modifying motorcycles. A share of the income that motorcycle club members earn while working at motorcycle shops goes to paying the motorcycle club expenses.
1.7 Motorcycle Club Bars Business
Many motorcycle club members love to spend their weekends at the bar where they can gather and party after a ride. This is where they go to interact, dance, and drink. These bars are also open to the public. The profit made from these bars contributes to paying for motorcycle club expenses. It is up to the motorcycle’s club management whether to open the bars to the public every day or only on special occasions.
1.8 Fuel Station
Motorcycle clubs also make money by running fuel stations. Since all motorcyclists need to refuel their vehicles eventually, a fuel station makes for a profitable business.
Motorcycle clubs have plenty of options when it comes to starting a business to earn money to pay for club expenses. This decision depends on the motorcycle club’s budget and how much business the members want to do.
Starting Your Motorcycle Club
When it comes to starting a motorcycle club, there’s no one right way to do it. But here’s the short and sweet version:
- Learn about the MCs and riding clubs in your area. Find out if there’s already a club similar to yours and think about how you’ll differentiate your club.
- Get your core membership together. Ask your rider friends if they’d like to become a charter member of your new club.
- Come up with your name, logo and branding. This is important for attracting members, so put some thought into creating something that everyone likes. Remember not to make anything too similar to existing club colors in your area.
- File your paperwork to become a registered non-profit organization. This will let you apply for liability insurance and give you other official capacities your club may need.
- Hold your first meeting (virtually, if necessary) and plan your first ride together.
- Host and/or attend riding events. Many clubs do events like charity rides or bike shows to promote themselves and engage with their communities.
- Stay in touch when you’re not on the road through club social media channels.
Note that the ongoing coronavirus pandemic might restrict some activities like in-person club meetings. Always follow the guidance of local health officials on whether it’s OK to have gatherings in person. Bluetooth motorcycle helmet systems can help club members keep in touch during rest stops without the need for face-to-face communication.

More on Broadview: What it’s like to be a hospital chaplain during COVID-19
KS: What’s different about being a chaplain in a motorcycle club?
JC: It’s important to have creds as a chaplain in the motorcycle community, to be someone who has ridden for a long time with a community of riders. My club does an annual ride that begins Friday morning and returns Sunday, about 1,600 km. And that’s a tough ride in a lot of places. You’re constantly pummelled by rain, and sometimes black flies and midges. The camaraderie is huge, probably more akin to a military chaplain than a hospital one. The care for one another, as well as other motorists, is extreme. You’re both an individual and also a member, in the truest sense, of the group. The capacity to relate is perhaps more heightened in the context of a motorcycle club than it is almost anywhere else I’ve experienced. I would guess it’s something to do with the ambivalent way people have come to look at most motorcyclists.
KS: Why would a motorcycle club decide they need someone in the role of chaplain?
JC: I think part of it is that most of these folks aren’t church people. But there is still this sense that they would be more in tune with the reality of the universe, if you like, if they had someone whose responsibility in the community was to at least listen and understand when they had spiritual needs to express. When you ride a motorcycle, at least for the time you’re on the machine, you’re living at least a little on the edge. The idea of having someone there to attend to spiritual needs, but not necessarily denominational needs, would be pretty important.
KS: What does ministry look like in that context?
JC: It’s a ministry of presence, sometimes of ritual. But almost always of being one with the community. There is a certain expertise on a motorcycle that’s required to be taken seriously. A chaplain in a hospital has the appropriate training, but they don’t have to be able to handle 900 pounds of steel, rubber, and fuel at 120 km/hr for hours on end.
All Christians, by virtue of their baptism, and certainly all clergy, are meant to be ambassadors for Christ. I push that further—I would consider myself absolutely a Christian, but almost all my work for the last decade has been involved in inter-religious dialogue and conversation. I would almost say I’m an ambassador for the faith perspective. I think that’s something we’re called to be wherever we are, including in the midst of a motorcycle ride.

Hamsters Motorcycle Club
As Motorcycle Crusier writes, the Hamsters Motorcycle Club was born as a tongue-in-cheek response to the hard-core biker image of the ’70s. Determined to show that a group of riders could have a good time without it ending in violence, the group’s founders set about creating a club that neither pandered to nor celebrated the stereotypes.
Although rumors have abounded about the group for years (including speculation that they clean their boots with $100 bills, that they collectively own 67% of Lawrence County, South Dakota, and that they all own helicopters), there’s actually no stipulation that you have to be a millionaire to join.
Warlocks
There are some outlaw motorcycle clubs that started out like a regular law-abiding motorcycle club but turned rogue with time. But Warlocks has been one if the most violent biker club since its inception. In fact, many outlaw bikers refuse to associate with them due to their reputation.
Warlock motorcycle club started in 1967 in Florida. Its founders served in the US navy on the USS Shangri-La aircraft carrier. Even today, Warlocks are most active in Florida where they have 11 chapters. Apart from this, they have five chapters in Virginia, seven chapters in South Carolina, four chapters in West Virginia, two chapters each in Georgia and Ohio, one each in Minnesota, Tennessee, and New York.
Warlocks Motorcycle Club also has an international presence with three chapters each in England and Canada, and two chapters in Germany. Warlocks also have some nomad members that are not associated with any particular chapter. In total, there are over 500 members in Warlocks Motorcycle Club.
This group members are involved in Gun and drug running. Recently in 2014, four Warlock members were arrested in guns and drugs bust in Canada.
Motorcycle Manby Kristen Ashley
Tyra Masters has had enough drama to last a lifetime. Now, she’s back on track and looking forward to her new, quiet life. Until she meets the man of her dreams.
The tattooed, muscled biker is the kind of man she’s always wanted. Unfortunately, he’s also her new boss.Kane “Tack” Allen has a rule. He doesn’t employ someone he’s slept with. So when he learns he spent last night in bed with his new office manager, he quickly fires Tyra.
Yet when Tyra stands up to him and fights for her job, Tack is intrigued. He tells her she can keep her job on one condition that they keep things professional.
But as things heat up between them, Tack finds that he’ll be the one breaking all the rules.
Tack is absolutely one of my favorite book boyfriends. This man believes in communication and honesty and that made him so incredibly hot (in addition to his dirty talk and skills in the bedroom).
I’ll say there were two things that I did not like about him AT FIRST but you learn more later in the story and then I GOT IT.I love how he came across as this total alpha male but all along was reading Red, learning her, and understanding when he had to handle her with care. I absolutely loved him as a father too.Red was ready to bolt one too many times but this man was patient.
Tack is President of the motorcycle club Chaos, but it’s not your typical MC club that may be into stuff that is not so above board which I found refreshing. Instead, they operate a custom garage which was really cool.This is such a great read, I didn’t want to put it down!
Pagans
Pagan Motorcycle Club was formed in 1959 in Maryland. But it was not an outlaw motorcycle club until early 70s when John “Satan” Marron became incharge of the club.
After 70s they went against Hells Angels and started gun running operations. Inspite of their small size of around 900 members, they are classed as one of the “Big 4” by Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.
Pagan gained notoriety over the years with support from the Italian Mafia and Aryan Brotherhood. Their activities included drug smuggling, arms dealings, bombings, etc. In 2018 their Rhode island clubhouse was busted and lots of illegal weapon were recovered, including a rocket launcher.
Pagans still go aggressively against Hells Angels and leave no opportunity to attack them. Pagans have around 100 chapters, mostly along the east coast of USA and Puerto Rico.
Outlaws / AOA
Outlaws Motorcycle Club is also called A.O.A as it’s incorporated as American Outlaws Association. This club was formed in 1935 in Matilda’s bar on the famous Route 66 McCook, Illinois. They are one of the big four outlaw motorcycle clubs in America.Outlaws MC is truly an international Biker’s Club
Outlaws MC member count stands at over 1700 men, all of them ride American made motorcycles. They have great influence across the canadian border, which helps them smuggle drugs in and out of USA. Outlaws have intense beef with Hells Angels MC. In fact they often use the phrase ADIOS ( means goodbye in Spanish) as an acronym for Angels Die In Outlaws States.
Apart from 43 Chapters in USA, Outlaws have 20 chapters in Canada, 30 chapers in England and Wales, 33 chapters in New Zealand, 15 in Belgium, 15 in Brazil, 7 in Chile, 1 each in Ecuador and Czechia, and many more across the world.

8-е место. Bandidos MC.
Этот мотоклуб, зародившийся в г. Сан-Антонио, штат Техас, в 1966 году, является одним из самых печально известных в США. Эмблемой мотоклуба является мультяшный образ мексиканца с мачете в одной руке и с пистолетом в другой. Поскольку мотоклуб был собран под предводительством бывшего морского пехотинца, воевавшего во Вьетнаме, основными цветами эмблемы стали золотой и красный. Мотоклуб Bandidos MC имеет более 90 чепт в США и по всему миру. Наиболее известные — Немецкая и Австралийская.
Члены Bandidos MC с момента открытия клуба совершили целый ряд тяжких преступлений. В 2006 году один из членов мотоклуба был арестован и обвинен в убийстве известного боксера-легковеса и одного из членов мотоклуба Hell’s Angels MC, который был застрелен на выходе из ресторана в марте того же года. Убийство произошло в момент празднования 40-летней годовщины со дня основания клуба.
Также членам этого мотоклуба неоднократно предъявлялись обвинения в незаконном обороте оружия и наркотиков, рекете и вооруженных нападениях.

The modern motorcycle club
Most clubs today are recognized by and follow the rules of the American Motorcyclist Association, or the AMA. They are full of regular Americans and they’re perfectly legal.
There are also so-called outlaw motorcycle clubs. Contrary to their names, they’re not actually illegal, most of the time at least. An outlaw club is simply a club that neither follows the rules of nor is recognized by the AMA.
Instead, an outlaw motorcycle club usually has its own laws and its members will abide by. This is actually where the term One Percenters comes from. After that Hollister brawl in 1947, the AMA said that 99% of motorcyclists were law-abiding citizens and 1% were outlaws.
To distance themselves from the AMA, those outlaw motorcycle clubs took that statement and made it a part of their identity. But again, most outlaw motorcycle clubs aren’t actually outlaws to begin with.
Criminal biker gangs definitely still exists, but the majority of all modern motorcycle clubs are just like any other clubs. They’re groups of like-minded individuals who meet up every now and again and do something that they all love, and that’s riding.
