What do you call your bike?

[BA80]

Depends on how it's treating me at the time.......can't repeat most here.

I must be getting old...I'm really startin to like those late model Wings....
And the F6B.....

That F6B does look pretty cool. I kinda like the old ones, too. With those opposed cylinders I'll bet they run real smooth. If it wasn't for their reputation for leaking oil, I'd be real interested.

What do I call my bike?

No matter how or what I call the bike, it does not come to me or even answer. Am I missing something???

[STEPPENWOLF]

I don't blame the bike at all...a new knee was no problem.foot reattached with metal plates and screws slowed me down but a few other things happened so it took me awhile to be able to get on the seat.

It is mad at me now since I have not ridden it in a couple years but a few short trips.

I'm gonna fix that for you pretty soon. I finished with my brother's bike and mine, and I got the front end of the jeep pretty much squared away. One more u-joint and some brakes, and I'm ready.

I call mine Serenity. If you are a SciFi fan you know it as the ship from the show Firefly. She has pretty much lived up to the name. On every trip I make with my friends we take bets on how many times we have to stop for repair. But all the challenges, she has never left me completely stranded... Except that one time, but we had a trailer so not technically.

I saw the movie Serenity - which I think is what the series was based on. Good choice.

Appearances can be deceiving, though. For some XS's Millennium Falcon might be a good name - the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy.

Zoë Washburne: [about Serenity, on first seeing her] You paid money for this, sir? On purpose?

SwampThing is what she has always been...I'm just the current caretaker...y'll know the history...My XJ1100 Maxim that I owned 30 years was known as MadMax...seems to be a popular name..at first i just called him Max...but after the Mad Max movies in the 80's I changed it to MadMax...

[Wildkat]

Okay... That was funny.

I call my regular ride "Somethin' Special". I resisted riding her at first and she was simply called SWMBOXS. She's earned her new name.
My bike in Maine I call Noreastah. I had named her before we picked her up but there was a pretty good storm the day we got her.... No snow, but still....
