In the picture it's just sitting there not doing anything.  So I'd name it "Government."

Maybe Petri?  Because it's such a dish?

Dammit Mike.  We're not helping (again).



Ok, here goes.  Real effort.   

Inigo. 


That way any other bike you see you could roll up to it and say, "My bike's name is Inigo Montoya, you raced its father, prepare to die!"

I like that Don.  Too much.  Much too much.   Thom said "Any help" so far we are good.

Am changing my suggestion to Ellewood.

Changing my recommendation again.  I now like: Greg.  Name the bike Greg :coolblue: .



Honestly, it's probably a Karma Violation to ask someone else to help name your bike.  You can't just hang any random name on a bike and expect:

A) That it's a good name
B) That the bike will like it

or, and most importantly

C) That the Travel Gods will like it.


You have to just ride the beast for awhile.  Then, one day, something will happen and a name will occur to you.  That's how you pick a bike's name.

That exact process is why my bikes have the inspired names they do. 

My Road Glide's name is The Road Glide or, occasionally, SERG.
My Road King's name is The Road King or, occasionally, SERK.
My FXR2's name is FXR or, occ... no, actually, FXR is all it's got.

My 05 SEEG that was a previous ride did have a, perhaps, even more inspired name.  It was called The Red Bike.  Depending on the current maintenance involved they have all also shared the names "asshole" and "dumfu&%k," among other things.

Damn....  Gonna name the bike after a horse that rides off in a winter storm and gets dead?  That's cold.

They don't write songs like this anymore.  or maybe they do and I haven't been paying attention:

"On Wildfire we're gonna ride
Gonna leave sodbustin' behind
Get these hard times right on out of our minds
Riding Wildfire"


Lilly Bell, Mary Ann, Sally Jane, & Bessy Lou are also really great names.  Same reason, only different.
