Name your bike?

Does anyone else have a pet name for their ride, or is it just me?

I'm a big Grateful Dead fan, and I named my sporty after one of Jerry's famous guitars-"Tiger". It just seemed to fit. Anyone else have a story behind their bike's name?

I have a KLR650 - everybody seems to refer to their klr's as 'killer' or 'beast' or some such.

I went with 'Kylie'

I'm a fan of shorter names. My Yamaha Radian is called the "Rad" or "bad Rad," depending on how she's running that day.

My Suzuki Katana is called the "Kat" (pronounced "cat").
