Ducati Monster Forum

i had heard through the grapevine that ducati motor holding was going to introduce a new logo for the company ... from the description i was given at that time (the dynamic d was going away, and a "wing thing" was going to be added on a "shield like the corse logo uses"), it looks as if they launched this new logo today on ducati.com.

i kinda like it ... even though the "wing thing" looks a little like a puma logo (which i also like)

There it is. They set this with CSS, so it's a bit hard for browsers to resolve the correct image URL when clicking "View Image" from a context menu.

Puma ? Ducati ? wa?  It's not growing on me yet.

Edit: In case you're wondering, the "shield" is supposed to be a heart(or emotion I suppose) and the swoosh is supposed to be a road or racetrack.

just indifferent.  They already changed our beloved monster.  I cared about that.  But I'm past it.  If they wanna make the beast with two backs around with the logo as well, I don't really care. 

well ... i see your indifference, and raise you an incurious. [evil]

I'll see your incurious and raise you an inebriated.

I really don't dig the new Logo.

I am a person who does Welcome change but I think Ducati is trying to be a cookie cutter mold of every other motorcycle company out there now.

The more I see these changes the more I love my S4R.

I do like the 848 so the only Ducati's I see in my future is a 848 or 1098 and a used S4Rs maybe =)

now THAT is funny [laugh]  [drink]

+1  and the swoosh logo cup hath already overflowed almost a DECADE ago.  [roll]

Whatevs tho.  Successful brands can be built and maintained atop even the most poorly executed, butt-ugly logos (which this isn't, exactly).  But aesthetically, this mark is just a big step backwards from the last one, which was solid, contemporary and elegant.  Good thing they at least retained the logotype from it.
