Bike names?

[stifmyster1]

Ive been trying to decide on a name for my bike. And ive noticed that quite a few others have named theirs. So im just wondering what people have named theres and why.

Ive read that should really give the bike a name based on personality. Well my bike is a tempermental bitch in the morning but purrs once she is warmed up. And dislikes anything under 50kph. Any ideas?

[whowhatwhere]

Missus .

[george formby]

Crack whore.:eek:

Did you get your bike through a time machine?

[caspernz]

My current bike is named 'Kilometervreter' which simply means mile muncher in my native tongue (Dutch). It's also the first bike that I got the sticker made for with the name.

Sometime ago I had one which my girlfriend called 'Mistress' as she reckoned I spent more time riding it than her....she had a point.

The right name will come to you. But will it be original is the question....

If I knew how to bling you I would for confessing that.:laugh:

I have a Krusty child eater, a Tubby & a Little Cutie.

[insomnia01]

" Scooter " is what I named my ride ( Honda Blackbird ) why I dont really know, it just seemed to fit at the time & stuck !

Yeah I figured someone was gonna rib me for that, but I could hardly have admitted that her mother was a better lover....

[willytheekid]

Mines called "PhatGirl"...for obvious reasons :laugh:

[nodrog]

I call mine Vagina, cos I ride it like a cunt.

[stifmyster1]

Hahaha. Knew this thread was a good idea. Dont quite understand the time machine reference.

[george formby]

your bikes a 2012 model. Lame, I know..... It's a really, really slow day here. Soz.

[caspernz]

Dare you to get a sticker made that reads your KB handle....

My first bike was a Yellow GT250R, I named her Kiddo; After Beatrix Kiddo from the Kill Bill flicks.
I then got a Red GT650R, which was called Mamba; Beatrix Kiddo's callsign when she was in the deadly viper assassination squad (Black Mamba) since the bike was a bit bigger and badder than the 250

My current roadbike, CBR1000RR, is Cammy. After the Street Fighter character, the bike has a tiny ass.

[stifmyster1]

hmm. not a bad idea. but where would I put the sticker. It would have to be specially designed to blend with the fairings.

That sounds like you're chickening out already....might be misconstrued by horny middle aged women...

Which just makes yours look that much bigger :bleh:

Mine's named Gina (pronounced as in Jeena, not as in va-Gina!). No clever reason, I was just riding it one day and thought of the name.

My wife calls the bike my mistress though, she thinks I love the bike more than her. Dunno where she gets that idea from.

[stifmyster1]

no. Im not chickening out. I just dont want to bastardize how good it looks.

I thought of Black widow. Cause the bike is black with streaks of white. And if it moves quick enough can kill me. Might be a bit on the dark side though.

[caspernz]

Yeah, I get that you don't wanna ruin the look. In all honesty your Hyosung looks pretty good for a learner type of bike. I got my stickers done by www.fastdecals.com and I'm sure there's plenty of other places you can get custom stickers made. Cheaper than going to a local signwriter, but this was a couple of years ago now....so who knows?

Those are always the most awkward conversations:
"Do you love your bike more than me?"
"... >.> ... How was your day?"

My man (Mstrs) got his kb name because I reckoned he treated his first bike in many a long year, like a mistress. The upgrade bike is called "The Wanton Hussy" :cool:

[FJRider]

I know of one CEO who calls his Harley ... Miss Ellaineus ... (for his expense account ... think about it :innocent:)

[george formby]

Was gonna call the KDX " f#$%^&n green slappa" coz that's what the handlebars do all the time. Bit coarse though.

[caspernz]

Answer truthfully and live with the consequences. My current bike has custom made sticker which reads: "If my wife would let me ride her as much as I ride my motorcycle I'd be home right now."

Or there's this one. When someone I've not met asks me what I'm into, I just answer honestly: "Trucks, bikes and sex. Not necessarily in that order." Leaves lots of room for interpretation....

[PeteMun]

I might name mine Leela. like off futurama, my bike has one headlight and I keep thinking of her when I look at it :laugh:

[vifferman]

When I first got my bike and was all enthusiastic about it, it was the VifFerraRi, because it sounded like some model of Ferrari or summat. Then it was the Cakemixer, because the constant fucking whining was getting on my nerves, but maybe that was a misnomer - maybe it should've been The Politician, or summat. After 18 months or so, I didn't notice any more, so it wewnt back to being The Bike.
But bike names are doofus. They have model designations. It's an RC46.

[slofox]

"The Vixen"

So named because of the way it seduced me into buying it when I was quite happy riding its predecessor...

Here's a little quote from Smiffy, posted when I was thinking of buying this bike. Sums it up a treat...Smiffy should write for Mills and Boon, eh.

"42,600 happy Km's - until that strumpet of a gixxer came along and turned your head, stroked your ego and caused inappropriate erections. She is only after your money, you know. Oh sure it seemed harmless at first, the odd smile, a sly glance in her direction, a relaxed laugh at a little joke shared.

What of the tags? Oh those tags, didn't you and the SV have so much fun collecting tags together, the fine spring mornings, the warm summer nights and those long autumn afternoons together, just the two of you, taking happy memories.

But no, you want the curves, those long legs, you hear her voice in your dreams, that those not so smitten would most likely call a high pitched whine.

She glistens there with her painted face, it's all for show you know, once she has you hooked the spots and blemishes will appear...


Ooops sorry - need a tissue now, maybe I'll go take her for a ride myself - you know she's that kind of girl..."

[baffa]

GIJoe told me a few times that names just came to him. Which at first I thought was a bit odd.

Then I had an odd dream, where I saw a really pixellated cartoon version of my bike, kinda like an 8 bit motorbike.
I saw it, and in my dream state thought, oh of course that's Max, as is in Maxwell Smart (Get Smart).

So I woke up and realised with a mixture of amusion and depression that my bike now had a boy name. Unless I pretend it's short for Maxine, which also somehow fits.

[gale_wolf]

Perhaps you haven't noticed yet that "a bit odd" is actually quite normal for GIJoe.

[Maha]

Call it Sammy...
After Sammy Davis Jr, he was black and kinda funny looking...:niceone:

[Berries]

David.

After David Bain. It has stripes, looks a little odd and backfires all over the place.

[Mom]

Millie, and just because :cool:

[Jay GTI]

Katie Em. Quite obvious why.

When I first got her I used to post comments on my FB page about spending time with Katie, getting dirty with Katie etc. and a couple of mutual friends actually spoke to my girlfriend, concerned that I was having an affair...

That seems appropriate to some of us tanker drivers who know you sir. Cheers, Rob

[stifmyster1]

ok. Ive had multiple ideas pop into my head. Emma(not sure why), Blackwidow(black with red thats fast for its size and could kill my if I pissed her off.) and the latest one is black beauty or BB for short. That one just popped into my head for some reason

[MyGSXF]

My GSXF was called "the bitch" coz she was one! :rolleyes:

& the new Yamaha is called "Phoenix" (went all deep & meaningful with that one... she symbolises for me, a new beginning.. rising from the ashes.. & all that stuff... ;) oh.. & she's a puuuurdy red colour! :love:)

My prvious bike was finally known as BB. Stood for Blue Bitch. She was once known as The Blue Lovely :spanking:

The 'Katipo' is black with an orange stripe and is an NZ native (and sounds better)

[Hellzie]

Mine's Hellzie. Honda hornet purchased from a guy in Helensville. Had to start with H. That's pretty much the entire thought process behind that one.

[Gremlin]

Gotta be a chicks name... like hell I'm riding a guy. :nono:

My old bike, a KTM was Katie... well yeah, I'm real imaginative like that, plus there's hot chicks like Katie Holmes.

Current bike is a GSA, so called Jessica (lots of cute chicks with Jessica as a name). I ignored my mates who said Helga... didn't sound very cute (but then the bike is hardly small - like hell I'm gonna let them get a foot in the door tho).

Hornet is a typical Honda, soulless... never said anything to me that gives me a glimmer of it's personality.

[blue rider]

the transformer, because really she believes she's big n fast n cool sounding n stuff :devil2:

[ducatilover]

My CB400 was Boris the Beige.
The ZZR400k was Sakura, named after a Japanese destroyer ship 'cause she was a fat fuck.
Haven't thought of a name for the 600 yet, apart from "fucked".

[newhere]

Mine's Betsy just coz I like the name :cool:

[bluninja]

First bike I named was my RSVR which was called Sophia after Sophia Loren.....a sexy italian lady. Sadly she died within 24 hours...my next RSVR was Gina after Gina Lollabrigida another sexy italian. My yellow SV650 was called Hermione cos the kids were into Harry Potter, then came a blue SV650S which I called Britney cos it was a cheap everyday ride but not a keeper.

Current bike is Hilda, big and brassy looking, enjoy riding her, but I'm always looking out for something sexier.

[martybabe]

Mine's Betsy just coz I like the name :cool:

Every bike I've owned has been called Betsy, even when I had two in the garage at the same time. Named after a cleaner who asked me every day for about a year if I'd named the bike yet, in an effort to shut her up I called the bike Betsy. From that moment on she asked me every day how Betsy was :facepalm: even though I'd changed bikes several times, I don't think she even noticed.

You had a cleaner?

[martybabe]

No Dude, the cleaner at work, I'm the only blinkin cleaner I have :yes:

[Grant`]

My bike has aptly been named 'Penny' due to the fact that I have spent a pretty penny on her.

[Mrs Shrek]

previous owner called her"pearl" but to me it's "the hobbit bike" for obvious reasons.

[BMWST?]

Eric .

[Old Steve]

When I bought my GV250 home my wife said, "Are you going to name her? I suppose she'll have to be "Gloria", after that Van Morrison song you like."

So she's GLORIA. I took the hyphens out, but left the capital letters.

I'm thinking that the time is approaching for a bigger bike, and she'll be "GLORIA too".

[yungatart]

Ruby......

Ya know the term 'spending a penny' also means taking a piss.:corn:

[Grant`]

Well some people seem to think that the amount of money i have spent on my bike since I got it amounts to about as much as pissing it upside a wall. So either is rather apt.

[FuriousD]

I simply named mine R.A.S
Which stands for rough as shit cause she's a bit rough round the edges right now

[been_there]

XJ650 = Blue POS (piece of shit)
YZ450 = U Bitch (normally when stalled or fallen off)

As for the trumpy, I dare not name her....

[Conquiztador]

Mine all name them selves sooner or later.

The chop in my profile pic is Princess.
The K100 told me her name was Shirley after the funeral...
My K1 is Stella.
The Pan has yet to tell me her name. So until then she is PanGirl.

If yours is special to you it will become clear. If she is just passing through it does not matter as you will not remeber her anyhow...

[roadkillnz]

My KX is the "Mistress", as she's there for dirty weekends away. My road registered RMX is the "Girlfriend", as I ride her every day.

[xXGIBBOXx]

Well only got/had one bike the rest are scoots .haha , AZ50 was lill lucy ( little devil ) Dropped it in the wet and did my back in , ZIP 50 was Zita (sexy Itlian) And the bike is HANA (YAY a real bike) if you watch your cartoons - well Kim Possible . Rons sister is a little ninja mad strong and fast so seemed fitting

[KiWiP]

purrs once she is warmed up. And dislikes anything under 50kph. Any ideas?

Listen to your ride Gedi Stifmyster. She is talking to you, become one with the machine and the machine will tell you her name. When you look you will see, when you lick the seat you will taste and only when you listen will you hear.

Mine's called Katie, bit dull maybe but she's built for comfort not for speed and I love her :love: (I listen and she tells me she loves me too!)

[gunnyrob]

Max is my steely steed and we go on adventures together. Occasionally he gets really pissed off and lets me know in no uncertain terms by breaking down.

He relishes his new title "the eater of dreams" that he gained by red carding elite triathletes on the cycle leg of the elite triatlon held in Auckland recently, and has taken up other high class sports such as Marathons and the Telstra clear cycle challenge.

[swbarnett]

Max is my steely steed and we go on adventures together. Occasionally he gets really pissed off ...
Does he then get called Mad Max ?

I've never really named my bikes or my cars for that matter. I guess I never found a good name that would stick. Some of these names listed are pretty classic :)
