Best Answer

It is a tradition brought over from the Cavalry. A single spur is worn on the right boot in remembrance of a fallen Brother.

Some riders are also members of The Order of the Spur, a tradition in the US Cavalry in which a Trooper is awarded his Combat Spurs after engaging in combat or completing a Spur ride.

Why do bikers use the iron cross symbol?

I haven't noticed that many bikers using it but if they do you can bet it got its basis from the Wehrmacht bikers during WW2. The iron cross is a German symbol. The Germans were some of the first to employ motorcycles heavily in combat. The iron cross and other symbols like it had their base in the medieval era including the teutonic knights who the Germans used as propoganda. You know how some bikers wear those kaizer helmets with the metal spike on top, or we think of bikers like that, its the same concept.
