What sex is your bike?

[smoky]

So that got me thinking about why do we often refer to our bikes/cars as a male or female?
I often say to myself things such as
"Cmon old girl", "Good girl"

For a start if I referred to my bike in the male form - I wouldn't be able to hop on and go for a ride.

I guess talking to your bike as a female it allows you the illusion of being in control (just like a real woman)

[Krusti]

Maaaaaan, if my bike was female it would never let me ride it and then if I did ride it every time I turned one way it would go the other just because! Oooops maybe it is female.

I must confess, at first glance I thought this thread said "what is sex like on your bike"

...all I can say is having a centre stand prevents and embaressing acidents..

So take a vote and tell us what sex your bike is?

Mine's definitely a female.
How do I know?

1)She talks to me too much; but I don't always listen.
2)She's faithful, but I've been known to ride others.
3)She's not fast, she's comfortable and I love her for that.
4)She's no spring chicken but the touchup pen works wonders.
5)I'm forever replacing the rubber.
6)She fumes when I wind her up
7)She's got a slow box
8)She always looks better after a wax job
9)She responds when I'm going hard
10) She leaks when she's fucked

Mine is definitely a female:

She's always moody, I spend time and/or money on her more than I actually ride her, but when I get to ride her, I'm the happiest man alive All the money spent, time wasted and worries are worth the brief moments of happiness

Liar, liar, plants for hire

Nothing male could ever be as sexy as my bike.

Since the bike carries the name "Blue Angel" on the rear, she must be a female, unless it was named by Finn when he saw Dover standing outside on a midwinter night.

As an ex-Mainlander, I couldn't possibly comment.

Some british traditions are worth preserving. A vehicle is always a "she".
