Those bikes are Bosozoku:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C5%8Ds%C5%8Dzoku
They are violent illegal gangs of youths, who ride through towns late at night revving their engines. They are basically recruitment clubs for the Yakuza.
These are referenced in the anime Akira. They really do ride through the streets fighting.
There used to be hundreds of thousands of members, but the police massively cracked down on it, it is now almost finished.
Laws against these groups include a ban on riding with pillion passengers on the central Tokyo toll roads.
