Okay... maybe it's just a girl thing, but I don't think so... So, what do you affectionately call your bike, if anything? Mine started out as "Dimples", because of the little dent on the top of the gas tank when I bought it. But she's now become "Rosie the Rocket", or just "Rosie"... I must admit, I have given names to most of my vehicles over the years. Is this odd? Do I need therapy?

Tell me your bike's name and make me feel better!!!

Cheers,
Crystal

No, but your bike might need therapy. Now, as for my bike's name: "FZ" (maybe short for "Fuzz"?) Seriously, no, I haven't name her (but she is female as are ships, etc.)
 
I can honestly say that I have never named any of my vehicles, including my bike. I think there are a few doctors on the forum. j/k ;)

"the FZ" :thumbup:

EDIT - my good friend bought a silver SV650S last night and has already narrowed it down to Sophia or Silvia....he'll talk about his reasoning for a half hour if you let him. His last bike, a black GS500E, was named "black betty" or just "betty"....lol
 
You have to time your rides. They go faster..... For instance I ride "Sasha" every night ;) All my bike and cars have had names. Good luck naming yours

Hi Whirly,
You don't need therapy, my bike is called "Norman"

One of my co-workers had a classic Triumph with a custom paint job of Don Quixote riding his donkey. I thought it was cool because he would call his bike "Rosinante".

My fz6 does not have name yet, anyone have cool suggestions for the blue one?

Well two things really, the first was after a great English comedian called Norman Wisdom. He often played a clumsy gentle romantic role and the second is because of "Stormin Norman" great US general. He really had a big personality and the ability toget the job done. So I reckon those personality traits fit the FZ6 quite well.
