* ''ComicBook/TheHumans'' 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 ''Series/SonsOfAnarchy'' meets ''Franchise/PlanetOfTheApes''.

* ''WesternAnimation/AvengerPenguins'' (1993–94), similarly, casts anthropomorphic animals (penguins, in this case) as a kid-friendly biker club.

See also [[https://www.koveras.net/files/tvtropes/biker_narratives.pdf this chart]] for evolution and connections between these subgenres. Other common tropes in biker media include: AllBikersAreHellsAngels, BadassBiker, CoolBike, BadGuyBar, MotorcycleDominoes, and UsefulNotes/{{Bosozoku}} (in Japanese media). Usually absent: UsefulNotes/MotorcycleSafety.

Any media which depicts outlaw motorcycle clubs as criminal groups also double as GangsterFiction, though anything starring non-criminal bikers obviously wouldn't fit in there.
