MODS MODS MODS MODS MODS

[colinclarke1000]

@TheMightOfTheEnglish I Absolutly agree with what you say...mods/scooterboys and bikers joined together in the 80s to do things Like toy runs Easter egg runs etc...theres no animosity these days.. I have mates in thier 40s that still ride bikes/scooters.. times change and peoples attitudes change with them... one such examples of this was whitsun bank holiday in margate..thousands of scooters and bikes met up for a custom show

[MultiL666]

i rock all day on my chair,now and again i get up and clean the window with my tongue!!!!!!!!!

[modmadness1]

u no whats so funny lots of people are slagging mods off and saying rockers rule but has anyone ever seen a real life rocker they stink of engine oil, ciggs, cheap beer and bo. has anyone ever seen a real mod we wear smart clothes , smell good so just because rockers have got big bikes and look more macho think about it

[unclebully57]

soft bastards back then

[stafylides]

Nothing has changed since then - troublemakers will be troublemakers.

[Deanboy2007]

Mods have always been retards. I think it's a prerequisite to actually become a mod.

[modmadness1]

@Deanboy2007 

[modmadness1]

@Deanboy2007 fuck u greaser scum

[tonupjohnny]

mods or rockers, we both use two wheels, i've got mates of both cults and we all get on,these days we gotta stick together against the pond life out there, and the idoits who drive hot hatches

[lordoliz2]

they threw the knifes on the floor and used fists and heads... me granddad was a rocker

[HashishUno]

i think mods are the best, scooters are way more unique, than motorcylces, everyday i see a fat 50 year old man riding a motorcycle with a pink bandana on, a leather jacket and sweats. Atleast Mods have some style.

[TheMightOfTheEnglish]

hashish ,fat 50 year old bikers , hey you get fat 50 year old scooterists to , the mod v rocker thing is long gone , in the 60s there was conflct , and in the 70s ,early 80s you did to, now bikers and scooterists can ride out on an easter egg run with no hassle , the scooter scene is as popular as ever with several runs or festivals every year ,were thousands can attend the major ones , many scooterists today are the same ones from the late 70s and early 80s,

[theonekeyblade]

Wow so much hate,i'm a rocker but i ain't got no problem with mods,chavs are the scum stop fighting eachother and fight a common enemy and blight on the face of the united kingdom.The Chavs hate all of us,don't blind yourselves with hate for eachother keep your hate burning just direct it at the antisocial hoodie wearing crack dealing purse snatching filth we have all come to know and hate.

[wolf1percenter]

your so right bro

[AltamontKiller]

yeah i will never like mods but i prefer them over chavs emos and punks

[iceblade05]

@theonekeyblade maybe i'm asking the right person and i feel proud to ask, but what was it like back then?, my dad died last year and recently his pictures as a rocker came to light and there wasn't much on him or his former friends and also that mechanical bikes were the bee's knees compared to the electric bikes of today(which is a nightmare) due to repairs. so basically the question is, what did you guys get up to on a daily basis? what did you talk about and the kind of people you meet ;)

[PAULmodWELLERparka]

@theonekeyblade I FUCKING HATE CHAVS

[BridgetTHEmodette]

@theonekeyblade FUCKING HATE CHAVS. rockers are cool.

[RSJohny]

@theonekeyblade You know when this was?

[vince1433]

[aceface1875]

[vince1433]

[noax962]

[vince1433]

[rmcleod65]

[vince1433]

thankyou :)

[drachir6]

I have a scooter and ZZR1100 both are beautiful , Once you can appreciate both you will be a man my son. Until then you will continue to make us laugh!

[vince1433]

Ok then you so you have a dated sports bike and a moped! let me guess your a scooter boy who had a mid life crises!when was the last time they come out the garage?why would i want to appreciate something thats slow,underpowered and looks rediculous?refering to a bike as beautiful is fucking wierd for a start,it's a machine and a way of life,i bet your the kind of tit with matching leatheres and them floppy bunny ears stuck to your helmet,save your opinion for someone who gives a shit wannabe!!!!

[drachir6]

[tomazco]

[DikkSteini]

We mods at heart will never change and nothing will ever be as good as the real thing.

[atreewithnolife]

lol, wutever ,,,,

[Hoovercat]

I fucking hate rockers.

[jtc29373]

It was by that time a different element had come into the scene, So Valens58 my love of music crosses the boards from very early R'N'B(Rock'n'Roll if you like, down to Soul music Funk Tamla could go on all Day,certainly got no time for people slagging off others just because they are different to you.

[jtc29373]

later i had bikes myself but the love for Lambrettas even to this day does not leave me.Real Mods and Rockers did not go around knocking several tons of shit out of each other

[jtc29373]

My Dad had several bikes in the fifties but never considered himself a rocker!! just loved bikes and i guess some of that rubbed off on me but my prefered mode of transport was the Scooter being a Mod

[jtc29373]

I wonder if Valens58 had a proper Bike at all; or just dreamt of owning a 1954 Norton Manx, The most famous of these were Tritons - Triumph twin engines in a Norton feather-bed frame.

[Valens58]

modd is dead!!

fucking bastards!

rocker ruless!!

[jtc29373]

There is always a space for different types of youth culture,so you are a bit of an agnorant twat

[gunsanddrugs]

i agree! the person u replied is a cunt! and er..  thats that!

[pythongoon]

Mod will never die.And its Mod with one d.Idiot.

[stOOpid68]

[modmadness1]

@Valens58 rockers have been around since the late 40s the mods early 60s and a late 70s and all through the 80s and their still around so tell me whos really dead

[atreewithnolife]

I 4kn hate ppl who go on about "in MY day", ya just mad coz it aint anymore, accept it!

get ya cojones out ya wife's purse and take it like (half)a man!!

[bigpants36]

I am what you may describe as an 80's Rocker/biker, however much i prefer the lifestyle that goes with it, i had many mates who rode hairdryers disguised as vehicles and still do today, but we didn't fight about it ! what is all that about...Just enjoy.......... NOBBERS

[Rockeruk1]

Rockers are so much more cool-even today. There is nothing more cool than being on the bike dressed in full black leathers and 'the girl of your dreams' as pillion dressed in her full black leathers,in knee length biker boots and her jacket customised and decorated with studs and chains. Rockers just look the part. Rockers have lasted 50 years with the young still dressing the part on their bikes. So zip up the leather, kick start the bike and ride. BIKES GIRLS & BLACK LEATHER = ROCKERS FOREVER

[pythongoon]

Theres nothing MORE cool than riding a GS along the seafront with a crombie,sta prest and brogues.Who needs all that bleedin leather.

[Rockeruk1]

Not you if you are riding a poncy hairdryer.

[willmac1966]

What the fuck are you on about rockers did not last 10 years let alone 50. Mod fashion was and still is the only credible British fashion. What half decent female is going to get on the back of a motorbike. LOL. Smelly greaser

[Rockeruk1]

We rockers are here and have been always. The ACE CAFE is dedicated to Studs Leather and Bikes = ROCKERS. It is a mecca for bikers and the rocker lifestyle. Mods have their own events there but it is still dedicated to Rockers. Rockers have a distinctive look that has not dated on or off the bike. There is nothing better than pulling on a studded black leather biker jacket and knowing you look cool. Biker jackets are great and have never gone out of fashion and continue to do so. ROCKERS RULE OK

[modmadness1]

@Rockeruk1 hmm leather jackets a bit gay aint it and u saying greasers look better then mods thats just retarded leather tight village people trousers to sta press i know what i would pick

[vince1433]

FASHION!?! fashion is for sheep who follow every fucker else because they can't figure out they're own path in life,being a biker is a way of life not 5 minute"what the hell am i?"crisis like fashion followers AKA...MODS!!!!

[amemod]

BIKER????ahahahaha.....i bet you cunt can't even ride a bycicle

so why don't ya take your bike and put it right in your ass

[bobshark123]

pal, your'e a silly cunt

[vince1433]

yeah i'm a silly cunt,but this silly cunt can ride a real bike not some itallian lump of bent tin with an engine that could barely pull 50 mph without siezing! try riding something with power ya never know you might like it!!! and whilst your at it try having sex with a woman instead of wanking off over a moped!!!

[liberarce]

in 1965 a 200cc lambreta could do 130mph. nowadays their speed restricted.that was some hairdrier. out paced most bikes

[modmadness1]

@Rockeruk1 what about the greasy hair

[weareglass81]

the collective brit mind is one unique thing. They still throw those hurtful rocks at each other at Brighton to this day. Go figure.

lager louts y'all.

[liberarce]

didn't have lager then, sorry.

[103littlebastard]

GREASERS FOREVER! FUCK ALL THE MODS! FUCK ALL THE MODS! FUCK ALL, FUCK ALL, FUCK ALL THE MODS!! Fags in Fag Vespa's..

[modmadness1]

@103littlebastard u aint even a rocker so u shut it

[103littlebastard]

@modmadness1 = DICKHEAD

[modmadness1]

@103littlebastard u know i am right who here thats saying greasers are great so cool mods are retards ever seen a real life rocker no one really and most of the rockers on here are saying mods are great it happend 40 years ago times change most mods and rockers are mates now but its just some geeky retard or skater commenting about mods are gay rockers rule so tell me are ur a rocker dont lie either fuck u

[103littlebastard]

@modmadness1 You may want to discontinue your sad display of your poor character.

A person should not asume anything. Yet this is all you seem to do.

Im not a Rocker, a Rocker is an adopted term picked up from England. Im a Greaser always have been always will be.

[EzziHD]

@modmadness1 and you are 15 liam so shut it

[modmadness1]

@EzziHD retard i it dont matter what age iam still iam right

[liberarce]

whats a crushes?

[justin7007]

Rockers were living in the past... everyone including the media knew about them, whereas no one caught on to the mods or at least could figure them out. If anyone did pick up on any part of their lifestyle, they'ddrop it. I think thats much more intriguing.

[roppi]

lol, rockers are a lot more badass, with the studded leathers and motorcycles, but their music isn't as good as mods, but mods ride vespas and dress all proper. I guess my I would be a mocker o' some sort

[hyde9911]

These days when you look back on it motorbikes and leather jackets come off as slightly more cool then people on scooters with suits but the two sides were pretty evenly matched at the time. Maybe its a class thing.

[zaohad1]

Great clip!

Im a rocker by the way but totally respect other people even if the have got poxy twist and go scooters.Those original people are all about 60 years old now and probably dont show so much aggression,lol imagine the scene.

[u2rox07]

[Rockeruk1]

Temper-temper

[paddy6062]

[mikem1549]

[u2rox07]

wanker mods rule

[pythongoon]

you greasy old bastard.

ill love to take a tool to your bike and smash the fuck out of it.

mods have always pissed on the rockers and that continues to this day.

[modmadness1]

@mikem1549 and i kicked a greaser in the mouth once with my dr martens

[mickypeack]

c,mon rockers

[sauza2112]

I think they both sucked really. I mean what was all the fighting about. Was it because they dressed differently or because they both liked different types of music.Just seems completely unneccessary to me.

[justin7007]

That doesn't make any sense. Why would you try to analyze it? Fuck, no wonder you don't get it, you're too boring.

[sauza2112]

Hey man I worte this like months ago. And what do you mean boring? I've never even met you. Shit dude, if i'm so boring then what the hell are you doing replying to comments from 3 months ago.Just take it easy man.

[justin7007]

what? Why does it matter when it was? Has your mind changed since then? I didn't even look at when you wrote it. Why would you make a comment if your not prepared for the possibility that someone will write back? Weird. Fighting IS unnecesary, I mean why does anyone fight? Come on

[sauza2112]

Look man, whatever you say. There's no need to be foaming of the mouth. It was just a comment. I just figured that the insane fighting from two gangs over different lifestyles or whatever seemed a little excessive and unnecesary. thats it. Whats wrong with that?

[screelie]

come on u fucking mods yer!!!!

[uffme]

where are they all now,grown up and running this country!!!.

[lyn1954o]

we had no MP3 players or mobile phones in them days as u can see

[Johnboyblue1970]

My old mum sits and tuts at todays yob culture....I know she visited Brighton,Hastings and Clacton in 63 and 64...I hope I die before I get old...

[1horseman]

[zeboczulu]

[slkjgwwhite]

[qpr55]

MODSSSSSSSSS

[Czechmate1967]

Journalists haven't changed they are still overpaid, fucking liars- a 2.36 clip and a 5 second scuffle really justified all that bullshit? The kids on the beach seemed to be doing nowt.

[theefishlippedone]
