Hi guys,
I dont know if this has been discussed already. But I think the logo on my
S3 06 tank looks great, far better than the official? new Triumph logo
for example on their uk. site. I know something of these things by
profession. If a firm touches its logo, it must have some reason to do
so - a better reason than boring. Of course logos must live and change
as time goes by, but Triumph has not gone to a better direction with this
facelift. I should listen to its customers...us! or? I know its in the eye of
the..blap laa

Triumph changed the logo when the company was resurrected in the hopes that people would recognize that it was a 'new Triumph' not the crappy 'bikes don't run right' Triumph of the 70's. I personally prefer the classic logo and plan to do a nice spin-off of it on my bike which I found online.

Legman,
at least 2002 when I bought my first trumpet they used
the same logo that is on our 06 tanks. If you look at the
line under (from R) , it differs and ends before the letter H.
I think the font is different too., its somehowe weaker... maybe
more like it used be in old times.

Yes. What logo indeed?

And C is the newest and also the one on a stock 1050's tank, yes? Or is there a newer one still?

Martin,
number A is on my tank - just as the Rat.net logo above, number C is
the new version which I mean - and that's the one on Triumph site too.
