That a lot of this show is BS. In the 70's I had dealings with 3 different biker gangs. We bought and sold "party goods in quantity" to each other. I was invited to, and attended, many parties and asked to join one group. I wasn't a fan of the gang mentality, so I declined politely. It was accepted without anger.
While some of the scenarios in this series could be "based" on reality, I am 99% positive it is exaggerated drama made for TV. Way too many things to point out that are absurd and not like real bikers. And the jail episode is ridiculous. NO ONE raises to the top of the prison ladder in 2 weeks EVER and a week in solitary is nothing! Yes, I speak from experience. I did 3 weeks once and all I got was bored and a sore throat from singing aloud to myself.
The show is entertaining but watch it with a huge helping of doubt. Even in the synopsis it says, "This drama series is a fictionalized retelling of the story of meth dealer-turned-ATF informant Charles Falco, who spent three years inside one of America's most dangerous motorcycle gangs, the Vagos".
Season 2 while also entertaining, I am sure is pure fiction. There is a reason the ending is so vague, and that is because they could not fake a mass ATF arrest of a biker gang. Way too easy to check it out.
