Ok folks, wondering what everyone has named there scooters?
« on: August 24, 2013, 05:03:40 PM »
Now I know that people are pretty attached to there scooters. Kinda like a pet. At least I know I am and I have only had mine for about a month. Just wondering what names people have given the scooters. I have been trying to figure out a good name for my Like for a while now but it just won't give me a hint as to what he wants to be called.
      Everyone chime in and let us know what you call your scoots. I think this will give things more of a personal touch.


     Ride safe everyone, mscmkr

How'd you time that out for your 69th post? Really though, that's the name you came up with?

If I had named her it would be comeon as in Oh come on Babe please start. (she's yet to fail me but I always worry, especially when I'm away from home.

I call my LIKE 200i the "scooter"....so as not to get it confused with the "toaster" (our Scion xB)
Seems like a bunch of fellows are having a hate/dislike kinda thing going with their scoots (and issues re. females?)
So far, I'm still in that happy scooterist phase.....but if this thing craps out on me I'll get a big wheeled SYM or People or Scarabeo. Life's too short to muck about on really small wheels or issues.

That's funny Stig, I have a Scion xB as well. But that one I just call.....dented. Runs great tho. 2008 with only 53,000 miles. Bought it new and ran the drivers side into a cement pole in a gas station 7 months later. I hope I have better luck with my Like.


Ride safe everyone, mscmkr.

I too have a Scion xB (2005 - 106,000 miles) that I have called "Toaster Car" since day 1.
My Nighthawk is simply "Old Faithful"
The Guzzi is "Amborado" combination of Ambassador and Eldorado

I've got to come up with names for the Kymcos......

Actually, we have 2 xB's.
Son bought a '05 , now has 165,000 on it- flawless miles!
So good, went down & bought a new one for the family - then put the wing on and some graphics to make it go faster. :-)

Really?

How about POS, trash, garbage etc. the word you choose is about the most offensive anyone could come up with. Why not just sell the scoot, buy another brand and hit up another forum with the excessive language.

I call my scoot The Bat-Ped!  It's fun to say to The Bat-Ped anytime I am going somewhere, even if I only say it to myself. It's the little things in life :)
