Works of fiction that delve into the (outlaw) biker subculture, often starring motorcycle clubs ("MCs" for short) and their individual members in key roles, either as protagonists (especially in the newer works) or as the main villains (particularly in the "bikerploitation" movies of The '60s). Throughout the decades, the pop-cultural image of outlaw bikers has gone through several phases/subgenres, each associated with a particular narrative about them: "Bikers are causeless rebels": This was the original conception of the biker presented in The Wild One (1953), whose Johnny Strabler deliberately antagonizes the society that is basically alright and has no quarrel with him, initially. The next two narratives evolved this idea in different directions. "Bikers are a bestial invading horde": Popularized by the bikerploitation movies from The Wild Angels (1966) onward, this narrative zoomed in on the antisocial, destructive, and violent aspects of biker lifestyle, essentially portraying them as Always Chaotic Evil. "Bikers are misunderstood freedom seekers": Easy Rider (1969) sublimated the ideas of The '60s' counterculture into a new narrative of bikers as sympathetic sentimental outcasts. While few movies have followed said narrative to the letter (the latest being Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man in 1991), it remains an important counterpoint to the mostly negative biker portrayals in the media. "Bikers are post-apocalyptic raiders": Since The '70s, thanks to both Dawn of the Dead (1978) and Mad Max (1979), marauding biker packs have become an inextricable staple in post-apocalyptic and dystopian fiction as overarching or final antagonists.note Never mind that if gasoline production ever stopped (e.g. in case of an apocalypse), all existing refined gas on Earth would get used up, evaporate, or go bad within a year, tops, turning "biker gangs" into simple "gangs". "Bikers are generic tough guys": The shift of the "evil biker" image from "an unstoppable force of nature" to this in The '90s is perhaps best illustrated by T-800 beating up a bunch of bikers and seizing a hog at the start of Terminator 2 (1991). "Bikers are a power fantasy": A product of the early '90s' revisionism, Full Throttle (1995) blended a sympathetic portrayal of bikers with their tough guy image to let players experience the fantasy of being a Badass Biker. This narrative is, for obvious reasons, mostly found in interactive media. "Bikers are ruthless criminal enterprises": After the Quebec Biker War (1994–2002)note which wasn't the first biker drug-trade war, not by a long shot, but it was the largest in scale and the best publicized, the "bestial horde" narrative was largely displaced as the default biker image by their portrayals as organized drug-pushers and/or gun-runners, best exemplified by Sons of Anarchy (2008–14)note although the series did pit this narrative against the romanticized biker image from Easy Rider and Full Throttle as the protagonist's main internal struggle. Other common tropes in biker media include: All Bikers are Hells Angels, Badass Biker, Cool Bike, Bad Guy Bar, Motorcycle Dominoes, and Bōsōzoku (in Japanese media). Usually absent: Motorcycle Safety. For more information on the history of the genre, see also our notes on Biker Media and The Other Wiki's article on Outlaw biker film. Any media which depicts outlaw motorcycle clubs as criminal groups also doubles as Gangster Fiction, though anything starring non-criminal bikers obviously wouldn't fit in there. |

Road Rash (1991) made waves when it came out for not just being a motorcycle racing game, but one where you could attack the other competitors with punches, kicks and weapons while avoiding the cops. Later installments play up the "rebel biker" angle more, coming to a head in 2000's Road Rash: Jailbreak | |

Bad Company especially focuses on Bōsōzoku culture, being an Origins Episode about how the duo got their bikes in the first place. In Great Teacher Onizuka, Eikichi is no longer an active gang member, but he still rides a custom motorcycle and is well-known in the biker gang community. |

The Humans follows the exploits of the namesake club, who all happen to be great apes. Its set in an alternate Earth where apes are the dominant species and humans are used as livestock. The settings' history follows our own pretty closely, so much so that the Vietnam War happened and the main character is a recently returned veteran. Essentially The Humans is Sons of Anarchy meets Planet of the Apes. | |

Easy Rider (1969) was likely the first sympathetic depiction of bikers as sentimental outcasts, a deliberate subversion of the violent biker archetype of the time. | |

AKIRA (1982), as well as its 1988 animated movie adaptation, are rarely considered as an example of biker media, but the story does focus on two Japanese biker gang members, Kaneda and Tetsuo, and is largely responsible for the proliferation of the Cool Bike trope in the Cyberpunk genre, as well as for popularizing (via Kaneda) heroic bikers to dystopian and post-apocalyptic fiction. | |
