Discovery Channel got it right - a show that is obviously fake to real bikers and we still end up talking about it! I personally can't stand the show but my husband loves to watch it (hey- I did promise 'for better and for worse'!!). Of course no real MC - 1% or not - would have a reality tv camera crew following them around, broadcasting their MC business for all of us to see. Just in Season 2 alone, here's how you can tell it's fake:
1) Prospect of Sin Mob rides a H-D Street Glide but the scene where the LDMC 'supposedly' drug the prospect's bike - that bike that they drug had a fixed fairing and I thought I saw a square headlight. No Harley has a square headlight, so I'm thinking this was an old Honda or Yamaha that Discovery staged for the scene. Not to mention, Discovery (had this been real) would be assisting in criminal mischief, willful destruction of private property, and probably allot more.
2) The scene where Snubz is asked to spy on Sin Mob - had this been real, he never would have accepted. One simply does not spy on another MC unless you are some form of law enforcement because, should you be caught, the chance of you being killed is very, very real.
3) The scene where Sandman & Mad Max 'break into' an abandoned house to see what's going on at the Sin Mob clubhouse - again Discovery is part & parcel to breaking an entering! My guess is they rented the house so all would be covered by the legal & insurance departments!!
IMO, just like Honey Boo Boo, this is a worthless piece of televised 'reality' junk that when my husband watches I end up reading my bike's owner's manual, repair manual or the new parts catalog!!
