Sons of Anarchy Actors Buy Custom Harley Davidson Dynas
December 2, 2009
Sons of Anarchy is a fictitious, gun running motorcycle gang set in the fictional town of Charming, CA. These guys are true 1%ers and the show details all the gritty nuances of outlaw biker life. The fights, the conflicts with other biker gangs, dodging law enforcement, and family dynamics are all shown in startling detail and with great dramatic effect.
One of the unsung parts of the show includes the beautiful motorcycles the Sons of Anarchy ride each week across our TV screens. Most of the bikes are customized Harley Davidson Dynas. The rumble of their bikes and the uniformity of their mean black image add depth to their outlaw image. They look like a bunch of bad asses on these bikes.
Oddly enough a few of the actors including Ron Perlman, the President of the Sons of Anarchy SAMCRO Chapter and one of the principal actors, had never ridden a motorcycle prior to season one.
In an interview in issue #127 of Iron Horse Magazine, Perlman stated “I will never feel 100% confident on the bike. I’ve got too much respect for the machine and too little faith in myself, but I had more time before we started production. I had no time during the first season to learn.”
After some one on one training before season 2, Perlman is now a much more confident rider.
As for the other actors in Sons of Anarchy crew, they have taken a huge liking to the bikes they ride on the show. Many have ordered custom Harleys of their own.
In the same issue of Iron Horse Magazine Chris Gordon, the Picture Car Coordinator for Sons of Anarchy stated “…most of the guys got personalized Dyna’s from Eagle’s Nest H-D. They did a killer job in giving each guy exactly what they wanted. They have taken delivery of the bikes, so keep an eye out for the boys rolling around Hollywood with big smiles on their faces.”
The love of motorcycles can come from anywhere. In the case of the guys from Sons of Anarchy, it comes from working in a close bond and enjoying what they do for a living. It appears that the actors from Sons of Anarchy have actually formed their own motorcycle gang. As long as they keep riding, we will keep watching.
