... not enough tattoos obviously but I did get the firearms question right (and a few others).

60%


50% to 60% - You just might be a first year rider, but you sure ain't no Biker!
Does that double negative mean I am a biker? Does that question I just asked forever disqualify me from being a biker?

I reckon not bloody bad for a Kiwi considering a lot of stuff was related to the US "Outlaw Scene".

Lost a few points earning "too much", not doing my own engine tuning, not having enough tattoos or tools.

35% to 45% - It is time for something a little larger than that Moped your big sister handed down to you. Get a real motorcycle and there still might be hope.

65% to 70% - Not too bad! You know more than the average sidewalk commando or wanna-be biker. Keep on trying for a few more years and get another 200,000 miles under your boots.

14 out of 20

Yea I'll agree with that.

85% to 90% - Congratulations. This is Biker Country! You can hold your own with veteran Bikers and need not take any crap. You've likely been messin' around with motorcycles for a long time. You'd have to love "sickles" to know this much about 'em!

Man that's messed up.

Seems to be very US cruiser orientated.

Seeing as I've yet to met a biker wearing chaps I had a little trouble with some of the questions.

Managed to get 50% through guessing though.

I had a good giggle over the fact that earning more than $15k per year, having bugger all tats/tools, not owning firearms and a few other things disqualifies you from being a "biker" - in the writer's opinion. Even if you knew all there was to know about Easy Rider, CHiPs, chaps and the Outlaw scene.

Of course, you could know all of the above, have the tats the guns and tools and be riding a "Street Magic" and be a "biker"* according to that questionaire - I'd suggest that if that were the case and you tried telling a bunch of Hell's Angels you're a "real biker", you'd better be ready to use the firearms...
