Two I's in Ducati?!

Jafasaffer · Feb 22, 2013

Hello fellow Panigale owners and the rest of you..

I have had my 1199S for a few months now.. and while cleaning it tonight (apparently the first "proper' clean since I missed this before..) but..

I spotted that the Ducati sticker on the tail fairing on the left side of the bike is spelt with two i's it says Ducatii

Look here:

Any of you have this typo?!

Thanks,

I say bad photoshop job. The second I is a duplicate of either a chopped up T or the I. I call BS. Mine is not like that.

That's the Japanese 1199. What does your exhaust look like?

efna, it's no photo shop mate... can assure you and not the Japanese version either. This was bought brand new from Bayride Motorcycles in Tauranga New Zealand in September last year.

Here is a link to a quick video for you showing it to prove this is not photo shopped:

Well, if it is true, then someone is asleep at Ducati. I mean what type of employee installs decals and doesn't notice that the COMPANY NAME is spelled wrong! Certainly is bizarre if true.

First bike my dealer took delivery of last year was a 'Pangale' on one side.

Don't remove it! It makes it increase in value! Just like old misprinted stamps are worth more than the regular ones
