Not all that original I suppose.

Blue Pig.

No names for any other bikes in the fleet.

LuciferMutt · 09-24-2012, 06:28 PM

Yep I name my vehicles (cars too) as well.

Ninja 250: Niki (good dirty girl name, and this bike is the one that usually gets dirty and abused

)
VFR 750: LeAnn (A sexy name, I think, for a lustful sounding machine with classic curves)
Miata: Mia (easy but it works)
500 Abarth: Eva (the headlights remind me of Eve from Wall-E. Plus it's cute but can be mean)
Xterra: Kai (wife's car, her name, I think it works. Her old Land Rover was Naya)

My bike is "The Mighty KLR" because it seems to be indestructible.

My '79 Austin Mini 850 is "Cecil", named after the tortoise in the Bugs Bunny Cartoons. 37hp but faster than you'd suspect.

'65 F100 pickup is simply "Big Red", because it's both big and red.

Haven't really named my BMW race car yet, but it needs some kind of feminine slut name because she likes to be beat on mercilessly and asks for more.

Name that beemer bangher cause you love to !!!!!!!!!!

"Chandra", at home in the Himal:

"A Bike named Boo" on the Tibetan Plateau:

"La Lucia Bonita" in the Patagonian Andes:

And My current love interest, "Foxy Roxy" in the Wasatch:

Zorak the Dakar - b/c he looks like a praying mantis and is a bit of an ass to me (and is Episcopalian).

eastCOeric · 09-25-2012, 02:03 AM

I usually just call it "The Shadow", but sometimes it's "The Yellow Peril".

PSYCHO II · 09-25-2012, 02:40 AM

I have a TLA it is just FFS when it seems difficult to handle. In fact the same TLA has worked as a name for all bikes in all conditions when action is required. ‘Hi-Yo, Silver!’ HYS just does not have the same ring as FFS.

DrLewall · 09-25-2012, 05:21 AM

I will name my boat but not my bike...but if I were to name the bike, it would be HAFTICA, Hell Another Fucking Toy I Can't Afford
