I named mine New Chick. Then I ride it hard and put it away wet.
My bike is called "girl".
If I enter a corner a bit hot I mutter "whoa girl".
If I punch it up the on ramp I mutter "atta girl".
If I need to pull hard on the right lever I mutter "easy girl".
My logic.
I've heard its bad luck naming your ride, so mine just remains "the Z".
The Beast or The One

Let me know when you're doing a trackday, and hopefully the Ape will still be running:spit:
OK, back on topic. Mine have very basic names..
09 R1 = The One
08 YZ450F = The Z
07 SXV 550 = April:wub:
06 KTM 525 = The Pumkin
06 Raptor 700 = Rappy
01 GRC pocketbike = Nitro
Mine is Sensei because its old, and I will be learning to ride using it.
My SV's name is "Fuck this thing"
KB
My Evolution = Lacey (you notice her curves from a mile away, her...uh...body stands out, she looks like a thrill ride and will pin you to your seat when you hit boost, but piss her off and she will flip your world upside down, quickly.)
My Ninja = Lindsey (turn her on and your in for one hell of a fucking ride...end of story.)
I name my vehicles after ex's due to their personalitys. Dunno why, but it always seems to fit. I did it as a joke the first time (can't remember if it was my RX-7 or Talon TSi first) and for some reason stuck with it. Some funny ones over the years.
I've started calling the DR "the doctor". I have a new, much more awesome name that I'll reveal in a new thread in a week or so. Waiting for some goodies to arrive in the mail :D
I work on most of my vehicles so they all pretty much get named "fucking piece of shit".
Hm. So my EX, and an ex... bit heavy, lines I like and most don't, and more fun than imaginable... turn her on and it's bliss until she's back up on the stands or I'm pitched off and on my ass.
2 Possibilities here. One of them was the angry victim of the "can I tap that" thread. The other, actually more fun and I liked her more, so it'd be more appropriate, but I'd be afraid to make that association with my bike. I made enough mistakes with the girl, and I make enough mistakes with the bike, I see no reason to encourage the mistake trend.
Wonders if anyone I know personally is going to the races this weekend, and if I'm going to be hearing that name this weekend now
edited because I just laughed out loud.
me: I should go with the first pick. A bit heavy, a bit slow, but fun when turned on. "ex's name here"
drop: But your bike doesn't post douchey things on your facebook.
drop: At least not yet

lol do you have a fat chick on the back or something? I laughed at the "noticing her curves from a mile away" and all i could think of was that pic floating around of the beast on the back of that poor guys bike.

and the race bike is "lil baby blue" because she's little, my baby, and blue :bananna:
my FZ6 is named Zadie :)
My RMZ 450 is named "Herdy-Ger" because after Jen rode it she went 'it's like sitting on a tall giraffe' and apparently herdy-ger is the noise giraffes make :dunno:
