Post by: RandiBBB on March 04, 2004, 09:19:38 PM
Come on, guys, if you can name your winkie, I KNOW you've named your bike. 'Fess up, what is it?

My bike is named Xena, my Durango is named Dexter.

since I got the  color code purple bike and it's smaller  [cc wise] than dad's bike I call it  Ange which is ironic because my gf's name is Angela...lol

Gee! How did you know I named my winkie, 'winkie'???  :?

I call my GS;  'Pain in the ol' Arse'  (after 30 or 40 miles!)

Thanks for asking!

Well....my tags are based on a Lord of The Rings theme...i won't go into it.  But my girlfriend calls the little beastie "Bubula"  I may need a new tag.

:P

I'd call my bike Pokey, but that's my computer's name.  On this one game (a MUD, thank you) my horse was named Pokey and it carried all my stuff and stayed by me in battle :) So maybe, no matter what bike I have, I might call it Pokey anyways...

I named my bike Paul Revere.

The Beastie Boys song was on the radio as I drove home from buying it with it in the back of my pickup.

The pickup is The Grey Ghost.

And no, actually, I've never named my winkie.

Well, I'm a girl, so I won't answer half of that query. BUT...my bike is named Dodger - cuz it's zippy and flickable and has got me outta trouble by dodging through traffic.

My car is Rex, mainly cuz it's a CRX...

I call mine the "fart-rocket"  because it looks like a crotch rocket, rides like a rocket, but it sounds like something other than a rocket,  until you get it up to 9000 that is  :mrgreen:

my bikes name is "Bike"... my trucks name was "Truck".  Since I sold the truck to buy the bike, I thought it was fitting to continue the naming lineage.   :mrgreen:
Title: Named all of them...
Post by: The Buddha on March 05, 2004, 07:55:38 AM
Name your winkie... That's just gross...
Name your bike well makes sense when you have so damn many of them and 2-3 of the same damn thing... OK so the blue GS is called Gooshie... when it was white... why, the decal was sorta scratched up on it and I read it as gooshie first time I saw it. When it got the blue colors it presently has, obviously it became blooshie...
The other Gs'es (90 and 91) are both blak-e cos they are both black. The 91 was silver and yellow and blue when I got it so it was called Santosh-e cos my son was 3 months old when I made the 500 mile trip with him to get it and his name is Santosh...
The eli is called eli, the red eli is red-eli or srikanth's eli cos I got it from my brother whose name is srikanth. The 900 eli is eli-9
Vulcan and virago are both bvulcan and vira-go-where no man has gone before...
My savage was sausage cos it looked like they wrote sauage and that made no sense.
The KZ 440 is called 440.
The 2 nighthawks are called POS and get kicked a lot. well one is rust nitehawk and the other is POS.
The GSXR is called exare.
The 2 Katanas I had were both called Kat.
My 97 ford is called Scrub Jay... its blue and silver like a scrub jay.
My 69 beetle convt is snowflake.
The last 2 were named by my wife.
Cool.
Srinath.

I had an 83 Celebrity Sedan i called Jethro, cuz it looked stupid, then a 90 Cavalier that I named Gundam, cuz I was a little too into Gundam Wing at the time, and now i drive a 91 Cavalier that I call Neo Gundam, cuz the instrument panel and seats and overall everything is the same as Gundam.

My bike, well, umm, Gus Gus. The first Gus comes from GS, and the second comes from Cinderella. So, umm, yeah. Gus Gus.

I call my GS "POS" - as in "Piece of Sh1t"!!!!  

My wife used to call my Laverda "Art" until it broke down and then she started calling it my "Other POS"... She calls her Ninja250 "Nugget" because of the bright green color... you can take it to mean either a booger (you know... "Nose Nugget") or a reference to our pot-smoking college days   :mrgreen:

Someone glancing at the model decals on the tail side panels too quickly rendered my bike "The GOOSE."

:guns:   AGH!!!!

Gentlemen (and ladies), I only meant that I have heard stories of men naming members of their anatomy, hence, I was sure the majority would have named their bikes.
:dunno:

My apologies for being unclear - there was only one name I was looking for, and that was the GS' name.

Very interesting responses, I must admit.

I named my street SV "Jessi" after an ex-gf, because they were/are both.......

The track bike has yet to earn a name so right now it's just called "b!tch".
Title: I'm way late to this party, but I had to chime in
Post by: rizp on July 20, 2004, 08:40:44 PM
My VW had an odd combination of problems which resulted in it's name.

the wipers and the front passenger seat squeak, and the brakes had a tendency to bind and rotate the back of the car toward the front.
Hence: Squeakin' Lulu Spin-My-Ass. :P

or just Lulu for short.

I just JUST got my GS, so no name yet...

-Riz

p.s. for a while it (the 'dub) had a timing belt tensioner issue which caused it to sound like a mutant lawnmower from hell at idle, which resulted in the temporary namechange to Squeakin Lulu Rattle-My-Bones. :thumb:

1991 Nissan 240SX: Name: Money pit 1

1995 GS500E: Name: Money pit 2

I spend to much money on these things, thats my curse for having an extremly oversized Medulla Badidea.
