I don't think the fascination that many Harley riders have concerning Traditional MC's is anything new.
Even back in the 60's and 70's guys would go out of their way to 'become friendly' with various MC's, and then brag about it to their own friends.
But in today's world you just hear more about it because of the growing number of Harley riders and the availability of the internet, in which untold thousands of riders could get together and ask questions or state their thoughts.
Back before the internet people had to actually get together (or use the telephone) to talk about stuff.
But then again, just my opinion, and as everyone knows, opinions vary.

"Outlaw Bikers" is a real treat, a must see if you want fictional media filled garbage and nothing good on Biker fund raising, toy runs, hospital runs, food shelter runs ect.. they only show the bad side.

They show the law enforcement side.
99% is fictional and 1% is real.

All media only shows the bad side. Ever hear about a OMC doing a charity event? Or raising money for a sick kid? I bet not, but they do. Like I said in my previous post, if they were truely a criminal enterprise (like the TV shows and the media portray them to be) then they would not be able to wear their colors when they are out and about. The main thing a criinal wants is to be annonyous, they aren't going to wear soething that makes them stand out while they are comiting crimes.
