I have Havoc for the R1.
and Axe-wound for the gsxr, because looking at it from the front, it looks like the designers hit it in the face with an axe, and wedged a headlight in the hole - its fucking hideous! also axe-wound because Im not a big fan of Suzuki's, and I feel like (even more of) a cunt (than usual) when I ride it.

Any reason for the name if you have?

No. Only a fool would name an inanimate object

Just ask my Millie

And cos I could, she was going to be Lilly...

Sometimes I miss the good old days of motorcycling.

Mother F***ER? cONGRATULATIONS! Opps, sorry. This is the first time ever ( I think) I have ever resorted to grawlix to express myself, but that one is a doozey!

I once found out that I had that word in my vocabulary, I was making curtains at the time, and frankly shocked myself

Mind, I called the other one that matched (though mirrored) the window "Son of M etc"

The CRF= Start ya fu@ker
The YZ = the YZ

Not sure why but been thinking of a name for mine just recently - "Bettina" 'cos that's kinda the sound it makes ("Bett-in-a, bett-in-a, bett-in-a...") and it sounds German. Probably never use it out loud, though.

Generally not into this caper. But when the kids were younger (and very into Harry Potter) we had a pop-top camper we called Hermione, since she was obviously female and we all thought she was magic. It amused us at the time.

Let's hope not.

My Bike is called Black Magic. She is old, she is black, she is my first bike and she may only be a ginny but she brings me untold amounts of joy - the closest thing to magic I will probably ever experience.
