Here's a question that may seem obvious to some people, but not I - what's the significance of the logo on the tank?
Just a guess, Mostro is Italian for Monster.

I wasn't refering so much as to what is says, but as to what the logo represents - a bird? and how that fits into Ducati history.

It dates back from 59-67.

Woohoohoohoo! Two personal records! For breath holding and number of sharks shot in the face.

Ok, so we're getting warmer - but what does the bird represent???

I'm sure that the party responsible for the logo didn't just arbitrarily pick a bird. Isn't anyone else curious about this?

It is an eagle (so technically it's a bird).

It looks like it's probably a bird of some sort.

The logo represents a bird or an eagle.  I'm not sure which, but I'm pretty sure its a bird.  Or it could be an eagle.

I agree and would like to add that It could also be a "gold" bird or a "gold" eagle.

I just read that if it faces towards the left, then it represents a bird, and if it faces towards the right, it represents an Eagle.  But this was on Wikiwhogivesacrap.com so it may not be accurate.
