  The Max★Vox. If Yamaha had a partnership with Warner Bros. to produce a Bat Scooter inspired Vox (C3), this is probably what it would look like.

• Tokyo scooter scene captured on video

  WOW! You've seen the photos, now you can see it in action! Unfortunately the video is in French and my French is not good at all.
