Question Has anyone named their bike?

What crash bars are those? I like the look.
GP Kompozit from Turkey. Should be available directly from them, Amazon, or AliExpress.
I found the best price through Ali. They arrived looking perfect. All was good until second bolt of right side. Needed some ingenuity to stretch the bars for the holes to line up; fit was off by 1/2”. Tiedown from light pole to bar end; Tiedown from truck hitch to other bar end…ratchet a couple times and poof - perfect fit.

I had an old white Vespa that I bought during covid. I named her Betty White because (at the time) she was a bit old, white, and was a ton of fun.

I named my NC750X Lægertha (as in the Viking Shield Maiden) because she may not be the prettiest bike in the lineup, but she'll do everything you need her to do and won't ever leave you stranded.

I recently purchased a 1985 Goldwing with Sidecar that I named Ludmilla. She was a character in the story The Long Ships (a great book for you readers). Ludmilla was known to be unruly and difficult to live with--much like an old Goldwing that hasn't been ridden in 4 years, has a customized sidecar, and has been in a hot California desert sun. Speaking of, I need to figure out how to get ol' Ludmilla from SoCal to NorTex.
 
I named my Honda Fit "Marshmallow" because it's white, small, and squishy (it gets banged into a lot parking on the city streets).
I like giving vehicle stupid names. Maybe I should call my black NC something super cringe like "Dark Arrow".
:cool: :p
 
I bought a 74cb550 from the only PO. He named her Heidi. I felt obligated to put her name on a Barber license plate.
