When I looked at your ride I thought "Jewel". Something about emerald green. I dunno.

Personally I've never named any of my bikes before this one.

The Softail was at the house mabe 2 hours before it became Sofie.

Like SGT said look at it for awhile and start talking something will come along for you that fits.

I've been waiting almost two years for a name to pop into my head... Maybe I should name it after my ex. She's fun to ride, but is high maintenance and cost me to much money

I recently saw her on HBO. The movie wasn't great, but that's what happens when waiting on a bike part.

Kind of like the forever popular "Black Betty."

That's okay. I couldn't imagine any of my friends calling their bikes by name.

No problem. I can't recall any of my friends calling their bikes by name either. I've never named my bike either. I guess it's sort of like the song "riding through the desert on a horse with no name."
