well, I have come across some lovely names on here, so it's simple!


just reply with your bike's name (or names for multiple bikes, with a reason for the name if there is one.



I'll start with..



THUNDERBOLT - woodsman, as the exhaust is very loud!

TORNADO - 500 classic military, First experience of right shift got me in a spin!



PLease add more, even if a bit '"iffy"

Thumper. It's what he does....

my diesel is BIG KNOCKERS GRUNDA 11 THE HARLEY IS SWEET GRUNDA 14 AND THE DNEPR IS GOOD OLD GRUNDA 15 AND TODAY I HAVE HAD TO SEND GRUNDA 13 THE HELECTRA TO new ownership atb paul

The Enfield because that is what it is.

A lot of us do give names to cars and bikes. Also odd is it male or female?

Ernie is the name of my 500es iron, old school and curmudgeonly.. Makes a lot of noise doing buggerall…
Katy kwacker is a Z550 ltd.. Everthing is opposite to what i'm used too, brakes and gears wrong side, fast, flashy chrome and high maintenance cost. Got to be Female...

The 04 500 Bullet Classic became known as 'Harry' - as in Harry Enfield, in deference to the disaster prone actor.
It was then shortened to 'Enners' - and Enners was the abbreviation used in emails and texts with mates about the trials (it was a trials bike) and tribulations of Harry ownership.
Now the new Woodsman is known as Enners 2.
