I prefer Bozo since you would look like a clown riding it.

actually wwII Kamikaze gear is standard Bosozuku get up...and it's not surprising that westerners don't get it as they are attempting to affect a unique nationalist Japanese youth counter culture comparable to british or american skinheads.  So, every time you are offended by the appearance of their bikes, you are reacting exactly as intended.
