There's got to be other folks out there that have names for their bikes. What are the names and details??

Oh yeah, this name occured to me the day i got it, with apologies to Simon and Garfunkel for stealing from the song of the same name....wait 4 it.... big bright green pleasure machine or bbgpm for short. I thought about kermit too but i am sure that one is taken.

tnt61 · September 27th, 2012, 09:22 PM

since I still have a girlfriend after buying my 3rd m/c, I will call her Donna K

subxero · September 28th, 2012, 07:26 AM

haven't put to much thought into it yet, but just thinking now a japanese ninja name only seems right to me.

don't really want to give it a guys name...
"hey honey, i'm going to go take a ride on billy bob, be back in an hour"

All that being said, Kagero pop in mind. Its a reoccurring female ninja name in well ninja movies, the named female is typically cursed, poisonous to the touch.

Sounds like a winner!!

Tanuki. A mischievous and sly creature with disproportionately huge balls. Very real, but often seen in Japanese folklore as mystical, hence "Tanooki Mario's" ability to turn into a statue.

mjn76 · October 9th, 2012, 08:28 PM

the closest I have is the M.V. she is lovingly refered to as "the Bi*ch"
and my wive calls the ducati "baby"

If you don't know what that's a reference to, then... whatever.

Oh Lord, I'm going to out myself as a nerd for actually understanding the reference

Katma always one of my favorite Lanterns though, so good on you.

I don't have a name for my 250 yet. It's a '12 SE, passion red and spark black. Considering my catch of the earlier reference, I could probably call her "Black Widow" although that would be a different company altogether... I'll have to give it some thought.

Malicious Logic · October 18th, 2012, 06:30 AM

Named mine 'Scar'. It has a hole in the top of the right side fairing with some road rash around it. Figured it fit.

Car is Veronica, bike is Gwen

tcbmellowd · October 18th, 2012, 07:13 PM

Kawakaze "River Wind" by day... Jessica by night

tuan3742 · October 19th, 2012, 07:32 PM

Mine is called van because she likes to pretend she's something entirely opposite of what she is. lol jk (for the reason)

my bike is named after a really good friend of mine that has been a big part of my life. And like the bike, is very beautiful and fair skinned. =P

Lomv · October 21st, 2012, 01:46 PM

Hi KJohnson21,

Not yet, it's on order with the local dealer. I'm getting the SE model. Then I'll sell my 2008 Ninja 250 - Might see if I can take some of the nice bit's off and move them to the new bike. I understand that the tires that come on the Ninja are pretty bad. I've been running on the Bridgestone BT90's - pretty happy with those. May have to order a new set for the 300 when it shows up.

Coolbpf · October 21st, 2012, 02:13 PM

I named mine cupcake. Cus she so sweet :3

jeffreys24 · October 21st, 2012, 11:29 PM

I refer to mine as my two five slowwww

spawned4562 · October 22nd, 2012, 02:01 PM

Mine was dubbed the Sea Princess by my friend who rides a tuano.

Advincula · October 25th, 2012, 06:19 PM

My little taller brother kept referring to my bike as the "Blue Blur", after Sonic the Hedgehog, and it kind of stuck, so I suppose that's what mine is!

Daks · October 28th, 2012, 02:14 AM

"Zero", as named by the former owner who loved his bike so. I thought it was kind to keep the name.
He named it after the Megaman character, which is pretty cool in itself. I plan on repainting him and playing up the number more than the character, though.

Graugaard · October 28th, 2012, 02:24 AM

Mine is called Ninja... How original am i

ilovejesus · October 28th, 2012, 07:51 PM

My bikes name is Redemption

He's red with dark red ghost flames and white lettering, so sort of xP

after the painting he may be named after the Borderlands 2 character...who is kind of a ninja anyway.

oblivion007 · October 29th, 2012, 08:22 PM

Iconicpoker · November 2nd, 2012, 04:24 AM

The best friend I ever had who died

thats what came to my mind

loz944 · November 3rd, 2012, 05:14 AM

keymook my Thai wife named it that as its Thai for booger lol

Mountain Dew · November 6th, 2012, 05:15 PM

Once I'm building it up (big bore, hot cam, porting, etc), it'll be either "that really fast slow bike" or "the fastest 550 on the island."

Shaorune · November 7th, 2012, 12:33 AM

mine called "night wind"
always find food at night

SabreValkyrn · November 7th, 2012, 02:03 AM

My bike is officially named Coalemus, the spirit of foolishness. But my fiance calls her the Hussy because I would go riding with a friend and his R6.

Axellor · November 7th, 2012, 03:39 AM

yeah I just love my bike too much and it is obvious that I must give a name to it. So, I named the bile over the name of my favorite actor Daniel Craig and its name Rowdy Craig.....

NinjetteNewfie · November 19th, 2012, 09:09 AM

Onyx. Its black, sparkley, and brings a smile to my face!!

GetBusyLiving · November 27th, 2012, 07:24 PM
