Can/should Honda's wing be added to Rainer's (or anyone else's) proposal?
It's not likely to look aged in the near future :) and tells the the world we are not talking about Cuban beaches or Christian travellers  :)

Josep

Adding the Honda wing wil also cover both Varadero and Crosstourer (and the new bike we expect this winter as well). For this reason it will be better than adding a picture of any kind of bike. I don't know if we are allowed to use that logo though. It may have some kind of official copyright?

If we are officially recognized by Honda, think we can ! They are on the sleeve of each VIM's polo. I have it on 2013 French Meeting T-shirt. But perhaps ask our contact to Honda ...  :-\

So I have a vector file if needed  ;)

Another idea: I like the fact that we can see it is worldwide ...
Not sure we can use the wing without Honda ...

Gilles, nice idea, however...

I think the Varadero and XTourer logos should integrate somehow with the text, and then eliminate the words: Varadero Crosstourer.
IMO, wing logo lacks the word Honda, and it should be smaller than the actual bikes' ones.
And, given it is in three inks, it could be blue instead of grey; as blue, white and red are the colours of Honda.

Just thinking in loud keyboard ...  ;D

Regards,

Josep

I like all this thinking you guys. excellent progress. I wonder how long a planning committee at Honda would have taken to get this far?

I like Joseps suggestion to intergrate the Varadero kapital "v" with the Crosstourer "x"! And Zebulons suggestion to make our Global aspect of our community visible!

Capital Vee & eX  integration, stylistically perfect, I think. Along with TP.

Zebulon,

the idea with the stilized globe is great.
But at the end the is too much written on the batch.

In my opinion there should be only:

VCI
the web-adress
Varadero and Crosstourer
and perhaps the HONDA-logo

on the batch.

Greetings
Rainer

The Honda logo is copyright.

We would need permission from Honda to use it.

Skip the Honda logo. Honda doesn't sponsor this community and we paid for riding their product so no reason for us to give them additional free publicity.

All the logos are copyright so do not let that fact stop us. It is only a piece of plastic and Honda would be crazy to say no. How could they stop us from using it? I am in Greece at the moment and away from my proper computer, but I have a lot of old logo stuff. I will look for it when I go home on Thursday next.
