Default Naming your bike.

Hi

I was talking to my next door neighbor last night, who has a Heritage Classic, and while we were chewing the fat he asked me what had I named my bike? Sorta caught me by surprise. Is this a common thing, as this Is my first HD I amy not be up on all of the ritual stuff.

My 13 yr. old nephew was in town last weekend. I was giving my RK a quick wax job before we went for a ride and I said something about "She looks good all cleaned up". His response was it's a "He" because women shouldn't have that much power.

And he's only 13..................................
