Hmm, I've been calling my Bullet, the Beast. Then I found out Obummer's tank is called the Beast. Guess I'm gonna have to come up with a better name.

I named mine Bagheera after the panther in jungle book.  It just purrs like a gentle cat when we're cruising the two-laners but when I twist the throttle open and let-him loose Bagheera makes a terrific mighty roar!

Mine is the Slug, but I'm thinking of renaming it the Rattling Gun.   :D

How about rattling slug? :P seriously tho I like slug 'cause it's kind of synonymous with bullet when you think about the slugs you shoot with a shotgun.

I name everything Floyd (if my wife hadn't stepped in, my daughter might be facing a miserable future in school), so it just seemed natural to go with Royal Enfloyd.

I haven't named mine yet.
I'm not even sure whether it is a boy or a girl.  ???
 I tried looking but that didn't give me a clue.  I didn't see anything hanging down.  :o

I may call it Phoebe.  That's a name rarely used anymore.

My G5 Deluxe is most definitely female.  Her name is Domino (after Domino Harvey, the English bounty hunter portrayed by Keira Knightley in the 2005 movie of the same name).

Alison is definitely all LADY!  ;)  She's finicky and takes awhile to warm her up but when she does she purrs like a kitten! She's got great curves and takes great curves. Of course she is named after my wife, Alison is her middle name.  ;)

I didn't know we were supposed to name these things. I'll name mine whatever swear word I use when the damn thing pisses me off. So far I've only had operator errors so I've been naming myself numerous times in the past few weeks. Mainly forgetting to turn off the turn signal ten times per ride.
