What's yours called?
Many people "nickname" their cars and bikes. Some are silly and some that take a while to work out. What do you call yours? Keep it clean
Trust me I am a retired Doctor and lecturer at Oxford University of Structural and Mechanical/Electrical engineering.

‘The Bike’… the only bike I’ve ever given a nickname to was a Honda Pan Euro which was called ‘Benny the barge’

The only bike i nicknamed was my Himayalan. Himmie. But sadly due to Sam Smith, i would have to call it Themmie 
I can't stand this PC, Woke people. With me, a spade is a spade and a man is a man, etc. People are just too touchy these days.

I haven't named my bikes, I just call them by brand or such.
She on the other hand calls all of them with same name: penile extensions.
Her 62nd or so is approaching. I'm going to give her a Happy 65th Anniversary Card.

I don't name any motorised vehicle but apart from my Lambretta's (which she loved)the general term of endearment from her is "how bloody much" when i bring home a motorbike.When I get parts like the Denali lights then it gets a touch more filled with expletives
She's lucky I let her out the kitchen to clean it
Should you be wondering my last S1 Lambretta was called Italian by Design (was written on the leg shields)
