Maybe we could start a naming service here on the board. Start with me!

My wing is an '80. Its a 20 footer, meaning it looks good from 20 feet away. Any closer, and the flaws are more obvious...

Hmmm what should I call it?
Goldwing! OOOH Yah!

I've named cars and guitars before, but I've yet to name my bike (come on, I've only had it a couple weeks, this sort of thing takes time!)

Eventually though, when I find a good name. ;)
