Would this be lame/ugly?

Hey, new to the forums and I have a a question. I like the design and name (lame I know) of the Hayabusa but I don't think I'll ever want a bike that can go 90mph in just the first gear :biggrin: . Would it be rice/lame/ugly to find a motocycle more on my lvl and put a different kanji symbol/s on it? I wouldn't want to look like a poser who wants a Hayabusa but doesn't. It would just have the kanji on it like the Hayabusa does...nothing else. Thanks for the input.

For as much as I like that part of the Busa (and not much else, for that matter)... Chances are, you'd probably get your butt laughed out of town if you put the symbols on as an aftermarket. :redface: At least that's how most of the guys I ride with feel about that stuff... but who knows. I admit, I'd probably laugh at it, too, but I'm a callous, cold-hearted beeotch so that's only to be expected.

The symbol on the hayabusa is the actuall japanese charachter for the duck hawk. If you found a different one and did it in a different style i think it would be ok.

I've been looking at pics of different motorcycles with kanji decals on it and I must say they don't look that nice. On second thought I won't put any kanji on my motorcycle. I just don't want everything to be stock. Maybe a simple custom paint job with 2 or 3 colors. Thx for the input.
