I’ve always considered the original biker Bosozuku to be a bit more serious and associated with gangs and crime. The customising style transitioned to cars, but in contrast the type of people who were doing it were doing it in a comical, ironic way just for a laugh. That jacket is something I’d associate more with Bosozuku car customising than with the bikers.

The company has been around since the '80s. They claim they grew from a street racing scene on a particular road, where the biker with the fastest time was the Yellow Corn. They grew and went on to sponsor drag racing and motorcycle racing. I'd love to know what the joke is. How do you get from Yellow Corn to Dangerous Warrior? It's got to be some sort of ironic self-parody. Or something. I need to explain why I have Bumfucked Hillbilly on my back.
Anyone know about Japanese language and biker culture? What's going on with this jacket? Yellow Corn is the brand name. The manufacturer says it means Dangerous Warrior http://www.yellowcorn.co.jp/company/ But how? Is it wasei-eigo? Other words on their clothes include Hamsteak and Bumfucked Hillbilly. This jacket has some corporate logos with the wrong words. Maybe it's a sort of Bosozoku thing? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C5%8Ds%C5%8Dzoku
