context_page_description: Rat bikes are motorcycles that are styled to look like they have fallen apart over time and have been kept on the road and maintained for little or no cost by employing kludge fixes. Survival bikes look similar to, but are different in purpose from rat bikes; they are modified for stylistic reasons.
context_section_description: Survival bikes are bikes that may appear to be rat bikes, but are not. They are influenced by the Mad Max films.
  The term "survival bike" itself originated in the British motorcycle press, particularly Back Street Heroes and the now-defunct AWoL in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
