I did a search and did not find a thread involving such subject matter. Earlier this year I got myself a tattoo (not my first). It has the likeness of my J50, the Ciao and the Allstate. I will be getting it touched up soon but I thought I would share with y'all my wild idea. This is how I imagine scooters are made. Show me your scooter tattoo!

I like those tattoos.
Josh, google wouldn't tell me what yours means.
Will you?

<<< If I got a tattoo it would definitely be a scooter tattoo, probably just like my avatar

I'm not a tattoo fan but that is very very cool. Although I have the feeling if I could see down further you'd see the Ikea guy with an allen key.

Tatoos are great.

I don't have any but most of my friends do.

I remember some of the first ones my crowd were gettin were Misfits, Suicidal Tendencies skull, Social D skelly, for some reason bones were a big deal......I skipped it.
Then the big thing was getting your neighborhood on your back or belly, Venice, MarVista, Longbeach, Hollywood.

This is funny cause this one dude Woody had 'Huntington' put on his back while he was in prison. But the tattoo guy misspelled it and to this day he walks around with 'Hunington' all across his back in big bold letters.....hehehe.

Yea, tattoos are cool.

I'm working on it. A 64 GL is being converted to a 64 Vespa GD 215. I was almost ready to go to paint before I went to the middle east. And yeah...I'm going to make a VespaGD legshield badge

I am still planning on getting the Allstate's shift pattern 3 2 - 1

I figure it will confuse people that don't know and I like to be different, hence the scooter-lily tattoo.

Haha @ Jimmyb

Nutmeg, that sounds proper, you could always add the "4" if you got into LF's

The jeweler I sometimes work for has an Allstate.
His club he is a part of builds bikes for rally raffles.
They use an SF part and have him engraves an 11 below the 3.
Spinal Tap reference. I thought it was clever.

Rad Tommy... speaking of farmers tan.. I bet I've got you beat! ... when I take my shirt off it's like I'm cobbled together from 2 bodies.. one dark brown and one bright white... my wife always complains, but I just don't go around without a shirt on anymore... what am I supposed to do? the sun shines on the exposed parts.... I can't help it... It's pretty bad though! Razz emoticon. I'd post a pick but it really is BAD! Razz emoticon
And hey! I like farmers!

When me and the mates would go to music festivals in Europe during the summer we used to see who could get the best farmers tan. Wearing a beater would always yield the best result

What?? I look like a two-tone Viet restoration!! My dad bought that Land Rover new, beat it to shit and then gave it to me, that there is the restoration result. Going back in August, kind of liking going down there during the rainy season.
