[b]Bousouzoku[/b] (暴走族, lit. "violent running gang") is a subculture of Japanese motorcycle gangs.

The stereotypical look consists of round or wrap-around [[sunglasses]], long [[hachimaki]] headbands with battle slogans, and a [[pompadour]] hairstyle.

Other styles consist of a military-styled [[school uniform]] (a [[gakuran]]) or [[jumpsuit]], with the gang's name on the back, and a [[sarashi]]. Usually, any oddities on a male's school uniform is a sign of gang activity or rebellion that falls into boso-style.

Their vehicle of choice is either a large [[motorcycle]], or a [[car]], both with extensive styling and modifications (such as [[neon lights]], low loading, etc.).
