The Finks bikie gang – fresh from a major national run in Melbourne – have released a music video of their exploits.
“Never Lose Faith in a Fink” has lobbed on YouTube days after members of the outlaw motorcycle gang converged on Melbourne for the major gathering.
It is described as an “official video” and carries the name Jazza 66.
The song, which appears unlikely to be a chart-topper, features what could be described as crude lyrics.
It is accompanied by a film clip of Finks members fraternising, believed to have been in Melbourne over the weekend.
One rider smokes up the tyres of his bike in one section of footage as delighted comrades look on.
WARNING: COURSE LANGUAGE IN BELOW VIDEO
It appears the lyrics’ author may be New South Wales-based because he refers to Raptor, the name of that state’s anti-bikie task force, with the line: “We don’t take no f---ing crap from the Raptors wearing the badges.”
Other lines include:
“Never lose faith in a Fink, we think quick, eliminate all risks.”
“We were made like that, we fight back when we see jacks.”
“Get the f--- back before you get your f---ing jaw cracked, jack.”
“When we smell the weed, we f---ing tell the brothers ‘pass that’.”
“Be careful who you insult or we’re coming to your home.”
“I love all of my Finks, every brother, in f---ing every state.”
“When we come, we come to stay, we aren’t f---ing going away.”
“We won’t ever toe the line, we won’t ever f---ing behave.”
Hundreds of Finks members participated in the gang’s annual national run from Wodonga to their Cranbourne West clubhouse on Saturday.
Police had put the outlawed bikies on notice ahead of the run.
Attendees were led by Melbourne chapter president Kosh Radford, also known as Koshan Rashidi, at the annual event.
Bikie runs are a tool for gangs to boost morale and demonstrate their strength to onlookers, including police and rival OMCGs.
Victoria Police said they had zero tolerance for illegal behaviour, saying their best detectives would be monitoring the run.
In November last year the Herald Sun revealed a push by the Finks bikie gang into east Gippsland had hit major resistance from the force.
The international OMCG moved into the Bairnsdale region in 2022, recruiting locals to the Kalimna chapter.
They established a clubhouse in the town of Lindenow, which closed doors after a police crackdown.
Unperturbed, the Finks are said to be eyeing other country areas in Victoria and have a presence in the state’s southwest.
Finks boss Kosh Radford is no stranger to news headlines.
In July 2021 he pleaded guilty to assaulting a man outside King Street strip club Centrefold Lounge.
He was convicted and fined $6000.
In 2017, he was declined entry to the Indonesian holiday island of Bali while travelling with family.
That year he pleaded not guilty to punching a NSW policeman in the face and urging his two dogs to attack retreating officers.
At last year’s run when approached for comment he told the Herald Sun: “No, no. You don’t ever talk. You know the rules.”
