Her Lo and my Slim (before the apes). They're named Huginn and Muninn after Odin's ravens. Both are fairly blacked out, and pretty similar. Seemed fitting.



The Road King and the Sporty are just "the Road King" and "the Sporty".

My vehicles always end up with names they deserve (I once had a rusty pickup known as "old herpes" because there wasn't a cure for it).

When I first got my softail, a co-worker asked if it had a name yet and I had to tell him no - it needed to earn it. I can't name it with no reason. That night I logged on to this forum and Dr V-Twin, who was doing the build for me, posted pictures of my bike. Someone responded by saying my paint job looked "****". The next morning I told my co-worker the bike just got its name.

Talking to the wife tonite about the names you all have for your Bikes. And it dawned on me I have Never named any of my bikes or cars. I'm sure there are plenty of you out there that have had more vehicles than I have. But a quick count on an Old Brain and I come up with over 25 cars and 12 Bikes. Not one of them had a name.


Am I the only one?

I named the photo album when I posted some pictures but it's not "the name" of it. I have always called "the bike" when I'm talking to my wife about it or "my bike" when I'm talking about it to friends.

Something else, it has no sex. I've looked all over the thing and I've never seen anything that resembles "private parts".
