No, but my wife did.. The Harlot.... since I buy more bling for it than her, since I rub and polish it more than her, since I spend more time in the garage with it than her... I told her that was fitting, and I could wash, rub, and ride her (the bike), and she wouldn't tell anyone!!!

I don’t name my bikes. The factory already did it.

My 2000 Road King goes by many names, mainly Sassy Bitch. When she starts back talking a swift slap to the tank sometimes straightens her out but she just keeps doing what she wants when she wants. Haven't named the Limited yet but I'm sure it will name itself sooner or later.

But the factory didn't resurrect a 9 year old thread.

Have never named any inanimate object, and don't understand those who do. Now, if it came when I called it, that would be different.

I have a Goldwing buddy who names all his vehicles and uses them in sentences as if their humans. Folks who don’t know what he is talking are confused in conversations. So stupid.

I have no problem with nicknames used in humble jest, my daughter in law called my green 2009 Ultra the bass boat, or the beast, or what ever. But when the bike is referred as a family member, it’s time to ride away.
