Yeah Cache this is also what I thought. It is an exact quote from at least 2 other web sites. Unfortunately, those sites are just individuals with Busas, just like you and me...so if someoneelse has information, I would like to hear it.It was the tat thread..
Based on many sources I have ascertained the following historical information about the Hayabusa. The name as you may have not heard comes from the Japanese Peregrine falcon. It is one of the few animals which can travel at about 300km per hour (in a dive). The designer apparently came up with the name whilst walking along the beach and seeing this bird. The colour scheme of gold/bronze and silver are similar to those of the falcon its self.
Believe of not - it is said that this falcon often hunts actual Blackbirds which I still think is a PR stunt !

Cache, what did you mean by this statement..."Thinker, Kerb,... the hayabusa kanji stands for the japanese falcon(forget the name) and it is the fastest most aerodynamic animal in Japan! that is the Hayabusa. 'nuff said."the symbol has a meaning approximating to strong and fast.

This seems to contradict what you just wrote. I believe what you wrote in the attached quote is actually correct...just want to make sure.
Thinker

Nothing on the word Organization or anything close to it including Group or Company.Thinker, while we are all working soooooo hard () , did you ever find the kanji for Organization?![]()

Let me just add a little something to our education. Everything so far is correct. I also saw a documentary on the Peregrine falcon on the Animals Channel a couple of months ago. Didn't post anything cause I didn't know if anyone was really and truly interested. But here goes.It was the tat thread..
