I guess I just call mine, "Meanie"....but that's the name most reviewers used for it in '02, so it's not very original.

My friend calls our bikes Betty and Veronica because his is black and mines yellow. I dunno, I call it the bike, but I suppose I could take a page from the cute "ie" names and call it Hornie?
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

My Rockster is "Gryndl."

She has this monsteresque growl when I roll on the throttle and is a BIG monster too (33" seat height).

but I never call it that.... its just my bike, or "the 400".

With the re-emergence of naked bikes, one day soon, real men will be able to bring their motors out of the false shadows of molded plastic and show their motors to the world without fear of ridicule or shame.
