HaHa nope. Up until now I have never given a name to any of my vehicles and found it odd to do so.
This bike has soul though(to me) .... she’s visceral and a bit vicious...
“Old Horse” is the name of my Road King, the first vehicle I’ve ever named. It’s not new, has some dings and scrapes, but puts a smile on my face every time we go for a ride. I stole the name from the film ‘Little Big Man’, as that was Wild Bill Hickok’s nickname for the main character.
Mine is Madeline...not sure why but its a sexy name. From what I understand, in the days of wooden frigates, seamen would name their vessels after a woman to remind them to treat it with respect, gentleness and to care for her. For if they neglected her...their lives were truly at stake.
