Naming Bikes

Post by 6maniac »

I have noticed over the last few months that some members of the forum give names to their bikes - I've never named any of the bikes I've owned ( although I have called some of them some very uncomplimentary names when they have let me down ).

So -
1. why do you name your bike ?
2. what have you named them and the reason for the name ?
:D

i was talking to zx6rider and bron before a quick ride once and mentioned i might have to start calling my zx7r "fungus" (due mainly to its current, less than impressive paint job)
I plan on living forever..............so far so good!!

Hmmm yes, Fungus, now I remember that name....

I like how you've continued that time old Aussie tradition... Like calling a redhead - blue, or a fat guy - tiny
