Mini bike gang that battered 90210 star Ian Ziering is notorious for terrorizing Hollywood with high-speed, booze-fueled riding on illegal machines while their groupies TWERK in the street
The mini bike gang that filmed 90210 star Ian Ziering is infamous for terrorizing the streets of Hollywood with high-speed, booze-fueled rides for twerking groupies.
The 605 mini bike gang claims on its Instagram page to operate from the San Gabriel Valley to South East LA. The riders make their own bikes, simple metal frames equipped with powerful motors, which reach a top speed of 160 km/h.
Police say the machines are not street legal and the riders perform dangerous maneuvers, including wheelies and donuts, some of which are under the influence.
Members of the 605 crew were filmed on Sunday rushing 59-year-old Ziering during a massive street brawl in front of the star's 10-year-old daughter on Hollywood Boulevard.
The actor claimed the attack started after a member of the gang 'aggressively' drove past his Mercedes GLE SUV, before things escalated. However, the latest videos show that the motorcyclists passed by without actually touching his vehicle, but Ziering still reacted violently.
The 605 gang has reposted videos of the incident, suggesting Ziering was to blame, on their social media page, which is filled with countless examples of their dangerous stunts.

The group is active in LA and regularly organizes rides that often involve dangerous stunts
The brutal altercation was captured on video by shocked bystanders who caught Ziering and the bikers exchanging blows
One video shows a gang member guzzling from a bottle of Hennessey cognac while riding a small bicycle.
The background is filled with the fumes of other bikes performing donut rings around him at high speed.
Another clip shows a scantily clad groupie twerking in the street as motorcyclists zoom around her.
One video shows hordes of motorcyclists speeding down the road, with one wearing a terrifying clown mask.
The account regularly features groups of mini cyclists taking over the highways through Los Angeles in groups.
The group was founded in March 2022 and regularly goes on rides.
The website features a logo that resembles the Interstate 605 sign, along with an image that appears to show one of the members being arrested.
A slogan underneath reads: 'They hate us because they are not us'. The website also offers $3 windshield stickers for sale.
Ziering claimed the skirmish started after members of the 605 'aggressively' passed his Mercedes SUV and he got out to check the damage
But while footage shows the bikers passing right by the actor's car, it doesn't appear they actually touch the vehicle
The 605 regularly post videos to their more than 60,000 Instagram and YouTube subscribers in which they brag about police chases and ignoring traffic rules
Motorcyclists involved in the skirmish, although not explicitly identified as 605 members, were also filmed smashing Zieiring's windshield while his 10-year-old daughter was still inside.
The driver's side windshield was shattered and slightly dented
The group's Instagram page has over 60,000 followers, while their YouTube channel has just over 2,300 subscribers.
One video on the channel shows a rider balancing on one leg and performing a wheelie outside a police station.
However, this holiday season the group also arranged a toy drive, providing tickets in exchange for donating toys.
On their Instagram, the gang posted stories stating that “Ziering started it,” referring to the incident that happened on Hollywood Boulevard.
Police told DailyMail.com on Tuesday that no arrests have been made but an investigation is ongoing.
But they did confirm that the area had been plagued by mini bike gangs in recent months, which is telling TMZ that Ziering's skirmish was “not an isolated incident,” and he urges motorists not to get involved in the fight, “because the mob mentality can escalate very quickly in these situations.”
After the incident, Ziering also took to social media to discuss the altercation.
“While stuck in traffic, my car was aggressively approached by one of these drivers, leading to a disturbing confrontation,” he said.
Ziering spoke out after being involved in the New Year's Eve brawl, confirming he and daughter Penna escaped 'unharmed' after the incident

'To assess any damage, I got out of my car. This action unfortunately escalated into a physical altercation, which I went through to protect myself.”
Ziering's 10-year-old daughter Penna also became involved in the confrontation, after one of the motorcyclists present repeatedly used his helmet to shatter Ziering's windshield while the child was inside. It is not known if the person is a 605 member.
