Cheers for all that chaps. It's a 93 model year btw. I've spent most of the day on t'internet with this font thing. There's actually other threads about this, and it seems that the '90s stuff is all logo, no font as such. Apparently this was what they did under Cagiva ownership. The best we reckon as a match is Clarendon Bold, but modified. I've spoken to a few people who do the stickers and they've all had to trace them or do them from scratch by hand. The latest Ducati logos now are an actual font, Univers. In case this helps anyone. Didn't know about Pageants at Wymondham, cheers sparkin, but found someone in Attleborough now which is well handy. When it's all done i'll post her up for constructive criticism...
