Naming your bike?

How many of you name your bikes?

I never really had any interest in giving mine actual names. It was always Ninja, Baby, twofiddy, the green one; and the Honda, Hornet, the black one, the biggun, etc.

I refer to mine as the Honda, the Ninja, and my wife named the yellow/black f4i bumblebee

First bike wasn't named but the second was Walnut.

My bike now is named Boo Bikey. He was named by a friend's sister. She used to call her blanket (which was blue) Boo Bankey. When she saw my bike she jokingly said "look it's Boo Bikey"

The name has stuck ever since. Everyone I ride with know's him as Boo.

My bikes are named Zed the Zen, and Soichiro. Zed is the ZX1000A and Soichiro is the grandfather of all modern sportbikes, CB750K8

I refer to mine as "Jailbait"

Chicken Killer, Tree Killer, Nazi Bike, The Blender, Mr. Wimpy, Barney Fife, The Squirrel Trap, The Elephant, Shit for brakes and Fuck Head (my ex wife's bike, kept blowing head gaskets).

First bike was the broke dick bike, the 2nd was the baby ninja, and my CBR is the hondur. I wouldn't really calling naming, but hey its a nickname

Mine just evolved from constantly looking at it and thinking "that is one sexy ass machine"

So now it's SAM.

By the same token, my truck is now BURT "Big Ugly Redneck Truck"
