My Virago is called Ruby, because she's red!                                                                                                                                                                              

my yamaha call hammy                                                                                                                                                                             

Our Dog is called "Raff", which is short for Rafferty, (it was'nt my idea..Ok?).  When he is out for a walk or, in the garden and any of us shout "Raff", he usually comes bounding up to you, all giddy and enthusiastic.  He has a character or personality, if you like.

Srrangely, when I look out into the garden, where my bike is, and shout "CBF" "CBF".....it jut stays there....nothing...believe me, I just tried it!.

Which brings me to my point, anyone who gives a bike a pathetic, silly, stupid name is, BARKING.  THEY ARE BLOODY MACHINES !!

OH and please tell me, what exactly is feminine about a motorcycle.

Rant over, off for a kip before my nightshift.  Have a good evening all xx

My old BMW was called the Bismarck, because it was German and built like a battleship. Weighed almost as much, too.
The I got a lighter and slightly more nimble BMW which became the Prinz Eugen - the Bismarck's lighter escort in the Atlantic.
Now I've got a green Honda VFR750. So far it's just the Green Monster, but that might change.
My dad was a great self-taught man. He called all his bikes Nemesis after the Greek god of fate. The idea was that Nemesis eventually overtook everyone!
