How about calling it, "Pangea hates me because I have a cool bike and he doesn't"?

Thumper is cool, negro y cromo is funny.
Color is ' black pearl' sort of charcoal with multi- color metal flake when sun is on it, thanks. |

"Davenport"
Big, heavy, and comfy, for watching the world go by. S-28 |

Jeep,
Cause it's got a windshield, more storage then a jeep and a radio if I had to guess. Only thing missing is doors, Just like a Jeep. |

Hey, I represent that remark. (living in Davenport, Iowa) |

The Sled
Normally I don't care for full dressers but that one is pretty nice. |

1) Needs to be a chick name
2) Needs to be a hot chick name 3) Needs to be an inside joke, ie character name if she's an actress. Exhibit 1 - We ended up naming a friend's bike "Lizzie" because of his peculiar interest in Hilary Duff's 18th birthday. |

Nope, fail. |

Jasmine. A nice stripper name. That's what you should have spent the money on instead.

It's not a thumper and should not be called such. |
|
|
I do agree, technically a 'thumper' is a large bore, single cylinder four stroke.
Still sounds cool enough. |

Silky...cuz it is a smooth ride.
Proud owner of a 99' Dyna Superglide, Aztec Orange, Stage 1.5 performance V&H straight shots pipes, Mikuni flat slide carb, rev limiter, K&N filter, ... 78 Triumph Bonneville that I've had since 1980, blue printed engine, bored, cammed, balanced and power to weight ration is just sick for a 310 pound 750+ CC bike. To all the anti-Harley types..FO, they don't leak anymore and are just as smooth and reliable as your knock-off Harleys. Imitation is the biggest form of flattery. Keep supporting foreigners you idiots.... |

You can't force a name on a motorcycle. Just ride it, and a name will attach itself to the motorcycle.

Call the big sumbitch Hog and be done with it! Names are for sissy bikes! So I named my Honda Sabre
|
|
Always named my Harleys, '04 Nightrain is Lightning, the 2000 Electra Glide that was totaled was 'The Geezer Glide'.
Drag Dresser was 'the Big Pig.' Something I Love so much needs a proper name. Was thinking "Ghost Ride." |

Grace SLICK
chick name and you know it will leave a oil slick every where you go |
|
H-D's have not leaked oil since the EVO motor of early 80's.
My old ones only made a puddle from the "Automatic Chain Lubricator" Come on, need a good name, being that I am an Ordained Minister, I like 'Pale Ride' In referece, of coures, to the Clint Eastwood movie. Hey, it is an 'Iron Horse.' P.S. Any H-D I rebuilt never leaked a drop, all the way back to the Flatheads. Seems like I picked my own name? Still fond of 'Thumper' |

I'd wait until it earns a name. My chopper ended up being named RatBike. My "designed" name for it was Soylent Green. That was all well and good until I put a chain conversion on it, dinging up the paint in the process of changing the rear sprocket, followed by a bad battery. So I call it RatBike. It's a nice enough bike that when I call it RatBike, it makes people go "huh? If that's your rat bike..." but the nickname also gives me an excuse not to sit around for 2 hours polishing spokes. "Fuck it, it's RatBike. Let's go riding."

Well shit. I got three in the garage and never knew I was supposed to name them, thought HD did that for me.
At least you didn't call it your new "baby". |

"My wife says it is better than the spin cycle on the washer"
