Mine already has one of the most badass names in motorcycles, it's called Harley-Davidson and that's good enough for me.

Yes, after our road trip to Greece from Holland and our holiday in the mountains of Greece, our old Heritage Classic was named 'donkey'.

I never name inanimate objects with the exception of the bike below. It just begs to be called "Big Bird"
