Japanese Motorcycles

Last weekend I realized there was a bike show close to my place in Kobe, Japan. I checked things out and filmed a bit with my phone.

Envy. Couldn't have something like this in the middle of Tokyo.

[BusanKevin]

@ElevenColors too bad. Some nice bikes! How are you these days? Haven't seen you around much on the interwebs!

@BusanKevin

Its a modified older bike (not a modern sports bike) made specifically for quickness and handling rather than comfort. These days alot of people use old Hondas and Suzukis to make em. Their profiles are almost flat looking.

@shinmei2006 sory...I don't know much about bikes. What is a cafe racer?

Once when I was in Japan: I noticed several young guys wearing t-shirts that said "Rat Boy" on them. I found it hilarious!

Now, I just saw the plate on that bike saying the same thing. What is this phrase all about? Anybody?

@BusanKevin why would most of them be doctors/ CEOs?
