Around the world, two up, on a Hayabusa...  Huh?

It's in Portegeuse, but you can use autotranslated subtitles if that's your thing, here's their Youtube channel:

And just one video I chose at random:

Pretty sure this is the same folks, not sure if this is a different 'busa or if they painted/wrapped it though:

Never in my life seen anything like the 2d pic with hard bags on the front.

Seems contrary to any riding discipline, would seem to drag in any leaning turn (causing falls), and ruin ordinary fork function.     

Pretty Shtupid.
