Pimp'd Scooters...
From Japan...I saw a few early versions of this craze on my last trips to Nihon in '99 & 2000, but nothing this extreme.
They look like baby Hayabusa pro stock drag bikes... . I tossed in a stock Yamaha T500 scooter for comparo, too.
The Tokyo Kidz are always on the edge; I miss my trips there.

Most likely slammed by hydraulics to park. You can see the pads they are sitting on clearly in one shot, barely in two others.
