Title: Nickname for our bikes?
Post by: Can-Mex on December 21, 2022, 03:25:34 PM

I wanted to start a thread to see if anyone here has a nickname for their bikes... My People's S 125 I called Hardly because it sounded like Harley, and my X-Town 250i I've called Stormtrooper because it reminds me of Starwars Stormtroopers . Your thoughts?

Never in my life have I nicknamed a bike or a car.  Closest I get is "scoot" for the scooter and "Trumpet" for my various Triumphs that I've owned.  Oh and I used to refer to the wife's old Range Rover as the "old Bus".

Sure there will be plenty out there who do mind.

no bike or scoot nicknames...but called our Subaru Outback the Boobaroo and still call our Ford Edge the Furd-Turd.

Those are nicknames in my opinion. My Ford Ranger was always "Betsy"

Scooters and bikes nope, never.
But my Chevrolet P-up answers to:
The Silvertomato
The Silvertornado

and the fav, my "Chevy F-150"

Makes the straightarrows on the Vespa forum nutzz!
