Default What's your bike(s) name?

I did a search and didn't find a thread for it already.

The naming of Jules bike got me to thinking what other good names are out there?

My RSV-R is "Sophia".

The KLX looks like she's going to get named "Kazumi".

Hmmm....

My ZZR1200 - The Zed or 12.
My ZX10R - The 10 or Zed-X-10.
My KLX250 - The KLX
My ZZR600 - The 6
My Zuma 125 - My Zuma.

Not much into naming my motorcycles or cars.
I'm boring.

My 250 was named "Chloe", but so far the 750 is just "the 750" lol!

Sometimes my vehicles get named, and sometimes they don't. I don't make a specific effort to name them, but if one occurs to me, I'll bestow it.

The Vespa and the Maico do not have names, and my wife's 250 Honda doesn't either.

My Ducati is named "Patina", because it definitely has one.
The Heinkel is named "Elroy" because it looks like that sort of Jetsons retro-futuristic stylee.
My old CBR600 was named "Rasputin" because it would not die no matter what happened to it.

Ditto. Neither of mine have a name that's stickin' at this point. The 600 sometimes get's called 6 and the Buell gets refered to as the Bull sometimes, but my thought process for upcoming graphics is a bomber theme, so Mitchell has come to mind. So it would be a B 1125R Mitchell as opposed to B-25. or maybe just Mitch for short.

I haven't really thought about giving the bike a name

I guess I'm boring too
