Motorcycle nickname

deadant · 01-10-2011, 01:11 AM

Just wondering about motorcycle nicknames. I haven't given my '04 nad a nickname yet. I was thinking about Spock, since it is a Vulcan (yes I'm a trekkie), but my wife doesn't agree. Let me know some of your nicknames to help spark some ideas.

I just refer to mine as my mistress.

Lucille is my red 2007's name.

I believe that most of us use a female name. Hollie rides with me.

If I felt compelled to name my motorcycle, it would be Black Sunshine. I don't, so I just call it "The Nomad", or simply Nomad for short.

**Top Cat** · 01-10-2011, 11:20 AM

I just call mine the bike or the Nomad.
I don't see a need to name my mechanical stuff.
Well, I did call the GMC truck I had a "Piece of sh*t".

**brote** · 01-10-2011, 11:58 AM

I call mine "The Bike" and my Jeep "The Jeep" plus I have "The Truck"

What? You can't become one with the ambience of motorcycling without properly putting a name to your ride. Now get with it... Mine is named after a girl who died of cancer at the ripe old age of 12, August 14, 2001. She was a real biker babe.

My Nomand is the Black Beauty aka Beauty because my wife calls my truck F250 the Beast thus The Beauty and The Beast

I grew up reading Travis McGee books and my previous bike was a bit smaller and felt much smaller, so my '09 was dubbed "the busted flush"

I named my toilet John. I named my carpet Harry. Hello Mr. Window. I think I'll name my refrigerator Frosty. And I don't want to forget my table lamp, hello Sunny.

I'm not one for naming machines unless the fail to serve me as I see fit. Then I have all kind of names for them.

My machines are known as The Bike, The Truck, The Boat and The Car.

Although the boat does have a name only because it was required for Coast Guard documentation. It's still reffered to as The Boat.
