as you are probably aware, Yamaha makes motorcycles, and they also make musical instruments. Well, the logo for music stuff is different from the motorsport logo. Some guy over on the R1forum hasbeen showing off his new tattoo, with a pic of him, sitting on his bike, showing off his tattoo. Its great untill someone points out that its the MUSIC LOGO!!!!!!

? - They use the 3 Tuning Forks Logo on their Bike Advertising.

Oh I see - the tuning forks don't overlap.

Will be a short list..I count 7<_<

PS: I would not have picked that (PIN PRICKING) up if it hadn't been pointed out.

Maybe Yamis just produce sweet music....to the ears of their owners.
The tuning forks/bike forks - nah, just can't make the match in my mind.

I don't get it. I't looks the same to me (probably why I don't have tattoos). Can someone point out the differences ?

When it comes to declaring your love of a motorbike brand/model I far prefer Katman's katana logo tattoo. Now that looks cool. The Yamaha one doesn't quite live up to the same coolness.

No different really to getting "Hells Angles" tattooed on one's forehead. As long as people understand what you mean, that's all that matters, right?

Aaaaaah. I see.

Hey, if I rode a yamaha I could have both - the bike one on one arm, and the music one on the other. Would look a bit weird though, huh?

There used to be a guy who tattoo'd 'justice sux' on his forehead.

Cept he did it in the mirror so it read backwards to anyone else.:laugh:

The "Hells Anals" might get upset though.

A mate of mine in the UK has a great "YERLAM BOB" story. Damn that dyslexia coupled with an inability to comprehend mirror writing.

Yerlam was a well known petty criminal in Dundee. His well knowness put him in prison every time he commited a crime as this tattoo was prominent across his forehead and he made no attempt to hide it when out on a gig. The police always addressed him as Yerlam and this guy was so thick he couldn't figure out why. :facepalm:

Motorcycle brand logos are pretty shit to be honest.

The only badass one I can think of is Royal Enfield. I mean it's a fucking cannon.

Ugly Owen has 'TRIUMPH' tattood across his forehead in Gothic style.

Did it himself on front of a mirror.

And facing him it is 100% correct and neat.

Where the hell are you Owen??

Hopefully see you at the next MATES rally...
