What better way to celebrate Independence Day than a bosozoku bike decked out in the stars and stripes? With 2026 being America’s semiquincentennial we did try to look for a 250cc motorcycle but, alas, we couldn’t find one. So this Suzuki GS400 built by Bike Factory Kittan of Takarazuka City, Hyogo Prefecture will have to do. It’s not a Harley, but even the most adamant haters would have a hard time scoffing if you zoku-revved this baby through Washington DC this weekend as fireworks burst above. Happy 250th birthday, America!
