Some outlaw motorcycle clubs can be distinguished by a "1%" patch worn on the colors. This is said to refer to a comment by the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) that 99% of motorcyclists were law-abiding citizens, implying the last one percent were outlaws.[24]
The alleged AMA comment, supposedly a response to the Hollister riot in 1947,[25][26] is denied by the AMA, who claim to have no record of such a statement to the press, and that the story is a misquote.[24]
According to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), they are also known as outlaw motorcycle gangs (OMG).[27]
