Kanji Character for Bandit, also known as Japanesse sign.
« on: March 27, 2007, 05:42:10 AM »
This is applicable to all bandits so I didn't want to stick it in another area. I was hunting for the Japanese sign for bandit as thats all I want on mine once I paint. Ran across this guys site- http://gsx-r.tatsuwo.org/e/bandit.html
The sign is what I'm using for an avatar right now. Think it could look pretty sharp, mine will just be a small sign somewhere on the bike but I think this is something one could really have some fun with.
sorry if this is a repeat post.

I have it on my Bandit, My bike was crashed by someone that took it for a ride a few yrs back, so I picked up a frame from a 2000(mines a 98) and rebuilt the bike making a few mods while I was at it. I tiled a bathroom for a local autobody/motorcycle painter guy in trade for my paint job. The caritures read "resurected Bandit"

Thanks for the link, mademiriam. Great stuff....as long as that japanese guy isn't putting us on......
like those women that got tatoos of kanji characters that turned out say "prostitute" rather than "hot chick", like they were told by the tatoo artist. :sad:

LOL - I was just about to go to the old, OLD BA to find a pic of Amtsters.  I knew he had done that.  Speaking of Amster... anyone heard from him????

I haven't heard a peep from him since, ohhhh 2005? He lives not too far from where I work. Last I heard was his work was keeping him very busy.
