My girlfriend names all my vehicles. Last bike (Fatboy) was Bertha. The new RKC is Betty. It's Black so "Black Betty", My Vette is Vicki.
She hasn't named my F150. Guess she only likes naming the "Fun" vehicles.
It makes her happy, so I go along with it.
The bike answers to "Mistress". She got her name because she always calling me to buy her something new and shiney. She wants to be dressed up and taken out on the town to show off her fantastic beauty. The only thing she does in return is "GIVE ONE HELL OF A RIDE".
I had a 92 Ultra named Buttercup,when i sold it and bought a 2007 ultra the wife named it Dammit for selling the 92 and buying the 07 but i got rid of that bike and bought a 2010 Ultra Limited (Merlot and cherry), I call it My Mistress and the wife calls it The Red Headed Bitch.

Because of the Merlot color popping in the sunshine like it does, we named her "Ruby" after Dorthy's ruby slippers in the Wizard of Oz. There's no place like home, except on Ruby.
