Have you named your bike?

Both my bikes have names. The Beemer is called "Babe" because she is such a cute wee thing

And the WR is called "Saturday"
I like going for rides on Saturday

the zrx is "hillbilly rex" or "the hillbilly" cuz its munted.

Cars are always gurtrude!

Nope. They are only machines.

Saturday is more of a Euphemism for a WR than a name innit. :-)

Ratti took the honour of naming my bike ‘Big Red’ something to do with the size and colour.

**McFatty1000** · 8th March 2013, 17:50

Man, these names actually have reason behind them. My bike is named Courtney, and the car is Sophie. They just both seem like girls. Both cost enough with their high maintenance at the very least

'Ferdinand' sometimes because when it hits 5000rpm the exhaust note sounds like a bellowing bull-calf. Usuallly though it's just "hello motorbike" when I open the garage door or "good girl" at the end of a ride.

bikes a bike... but the pricks that built it I often call "farking iti's"

Whats in a name ... its just a bike.

**Karl08** · 8th March 2013, 18:46

A few names sprung to mind when I paid for the 2 rather expensive Metzlers

Sure. But then again, we all come to a forum to talk about our bikes. Shows they mean something to at least most of us here

I have a high opinion of my bike. For MY reasons. But it remains just MY BIKE ...

**Flip** · 8th March 2013, 18:50

Its called "The Fucking Harley" and I am "The Wanker on the Fucking Harley".

Well, its a waste to modify a bike and then not give it more appropriate name!

One of my 'bikes' is actually just a frame and swingarm, and it already has three names; actually its more of a single three part name, giving the name more parts in it than the bike has
