Wild web page, Mondo. I first saw these wacky scooter-like bikes in Japan about ten years ago. They're not really scooters in the traditional sense, as some have 600cc or so engines as standard equipment. They are like a mix of a Harley, a Vespa, and a little bit of sport bike too. I really liked this experimental hybrid model from Yamaha that I saw at the 40th Tokyo Motor Show in 2007:

This one had a great art deco dashboard with wood trim that was just unlike anything I have ever seen on two wheels. Normally, space-age and retro don't mix, but this thing looked really cool to me.
