Over the years I have named some of my Bike, the first was Red Rhino, my Honda dirt Bike.
I have had a number of Rhino's, one was a Yellow Rhino, an Orange Rhino, a Black Rhino.
The 2014 Street Glide just happens to be the Gray Rhino, at the age of 72 this could be
my last Rhino.

To each his own. I’ve never given any of my 30+ motorcycles over the years a name. I personally don’t see the point. Might as well name your washing machine, fridge, firearms, or TV.

Someone once told me its because their is a special relationship between a rider and his bike. Same with a driver and their car. If thats the case I should name my favorite rifle or my smoker, or even my cast iron skillet I inherited from my mother!

Again, to each his own...

I forgot my old Low Rider, it was one of the few Bikes that were not named anything Rhino.
I called it "Bike" like in some of John Wayne movies if there was a Dog in the Movie he call it Dog.
So I named the Low Rider "Bike"
The Wife & I went everywhere on "Bike" I miss "Bike" these days, I'm to old to keep buying bikes.

I've waited for 24 years, but mine still hasn't told me its name.

Not that I haven't called it a few names when it won't start.
