    Haha is that even real?? Why would anyone do that? Literally no point at all. Unless you want to sound like a weedeater going down the highway.

    Also how did you come across a video titled 久留米SHOTA君VS連打マンこうき cbrコール バトル

    *shrugs*, recommended video :D.

    I was looking up old FZX750 videos and probably clicked on too much Kanji xD.

    I thought it was kind of a catchy tune they had there. They need a few more bike with other mufflers to harmonize

    I'm pretty sure they're inline-4, 4 stroke engines. Some other videos feature two stroke but mostly late model UJMs, not unlike our XJs

    I like two strokes but that is a great way to piss off everyone within earshot and yourself. I'd think of kicking myself in the head if I did that.

    They are. Small bore Honda repli-racers from what I can tell. The wheels give them away.

    Remember there are a lot of Japanese "home market" bikes we never see. That's where the XJ came from to begin with, the 398cc Japanese market XJ400.

    Those are bosozoku. They are a Japanese subculture group of motorcycle gangs. Lots of videos of them on youtube. There is even one of a CBX all done up in that style.
