Police were told the incident occurred at traffic lights at Layton Avenue after the driver of a white BMW knocked a rider from his motorcycle during a collision.
Although the rider was not injured, the Finks members and associates hit and kicked the BMW while the occupants remained inside.
Officers from Blue Mountains Police Area Command drove across the incident a short time later, although many of the riders had already left the scene.
The remaining members of the group were interviewed by officers from Strike Force Raptor, who have since launched an investigation.
