Ok i know its silly but i always refere to my 13r as THE BEAST and my bmw car as THE LADY keep it clean and not when you have grazed your knuckles or burnt your arm on the exhaust what do you call yours ;D
-
I refer to one as the K and the other as the GS. I know not very original but I've never had a name for any of my cycles, motorcycles, cars, vans or aeroplanes.
-
Our family cars have usually been named but not my bikes. I also have referred to the K as The Beast but only casually. If I'm addressing the bike while riding it, I usually just say "Bitch". No idea why.
-
The K is called the tank.
-
Depends on my mood and if anything has gone wrong with it.
If all is well I have muttered phrases to myself like like "come on my beauty".
-
SWMBO calls it "that bloody thing..."
-
Mine is called SWIMBO.....
-
Thirio: beast
-
Kay.
:)
-
I call mine Vex cos it's a BM trouble you. I'll get my coat ...
-
Mine's called 'The Bike'. But I'm thinking of changing it.
I saw an FJR pass me in London with a home-made decal... 'THE PUNISHER' !
Not sure why it's called that, maybe he can't switch to the ESA comfort setting when the road gets bumpy - lol
-
Treating them with love and care always pay me great dividends, I call my
-BMW K1300GT - Bimmy
-Honda CBF1000A- Hondy
and last but not least,
-Lexus IS300- Lexy ;D :) 8)

There are some very sad people on this forum :'(

And mine is Terry - for Pterodactyl - it's a bit of a Raptor...
Don't have this relationship with my car though!
-
I call mine The Bike, now many years ago I had a girlfriend with the same nickname but that's a whole different story which I won't go into ;D
-
...and how long til someone else swears they knew her... ;-)
-
I don't have a name for it so occasionally have to apologise or clarify whilst riding if I swear or curse someone, "sorry not you, the idiot over there".

Maybe something is coming across your mind when you jump and ride it! :o ;D
-
My sentiments exactly
-
My Number plate has KFC in it so obviously he's called The Colonel😁
-
If it is running sweetly then I'm too busy to think of a name...
If it is having a hot-start hissy fit you'll have to ask Richard what I called it the last time it did it, he was the only one within earshot...
-
I must be down on the humanity spectrum. I have never named cars or bikes, they are all sexless 'its'.
-

As my name is Sanders and i have a reputation at work of not suffering fools gladly or otherwise, I am known to many as The Colonel....
-
You are doing better than me Martin I don't suffer fools at all :o
-
The Panzer for my 13R :-)
-
A friend just found a name for mine this weekend: "Tangerine Extravaganza" (it's the lava orange K1300R model). I love the excessive number of syllables, just like the excessive torque and HP on the bike.

mines, stealth bomber

"Triggers Broom" :D
-
:D :D :D :D
That might need a little explanation for some of our non-British cousins Steve :D
-
I refer to mine, if ever, as my "little motorcycle." I have to avoid putting on a very bad Gruber accent, but that's the reference I assume nobody ever gets!

That's ma boy :D :D
-
I call my K1200S "Emma" :-)
-
After a good when all is running well it's "a beauty"
After a bad ride if things have not gone well with the bike "useless bundle of crap"
Other than it just a tool to use.
-
The bike ::)
-
Funky moped! :D

I presume that the 'Trigger's Broom' sketch in Only Fools and Horses was an original zinger from the show's writer, John Sullivan. Turns out it was already a legend when Plutarch wrote about it, not as a clever joke, but as a thought experiment involving a paradox.
