I'm not naming that bitch. I believe that answers your question in toto.

By the time you get your 6th+ bike... you've pretty much stopped all the cutesy stuff and they're basically just tools that allow you to ride. Yeah, they have personalities and quirks, and yeah you still bond to them and take care of them. But they're just tools. If I wanted something to name I'd get another puppy.
I find myself in agreement with this.

My bike's name was originally Nina... always figured it was lucky to name my vehicles, but like Hangfire said, the name I gave didn't really matter. A couple weeks ago my friend asked me and I forgot that I had named her Nina and told him I decided to rename her Bertha... 'cause I ride an RC51... and it kinda fits. :lol:
