Our trike's name is MotoMimi, and here is how that happened. My wife is Mimi to our grandchildren and when she started riding with me, she said I guest that now I'm a MotoMimi and I said that will be the name of our bike from now own. Then we triked it last year and it is still "Motomimi". That's our story.
jt - just sayin
 
LOL Bella I like that.

Our Trike is "The Orange Blossom Special" because it is Dark Orange in color. Wife says we are getting a Train Painted on the back because of the Johnnie Cash song title of the same name.
 
I call my trike SKULLY but at any given time you might hear me scream out "OH BABY" while riding so I might sould have named my trike that :).
 
HI Osarkryder: What big differance do you find in the ride between the VW trike you use to have to the trike you now have. I was wondering if the VW trike road smoother than the Honda trike.
 
The 2012 TG is Elizabeth, named after my wife, Elizabeth Annette, although she goes by Annette (the wife, not the trike).
The 2004 Night Train is Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, named by my son.:Monster:
 
Our 1989 Yamaha Venture Royale bike that we bought in 2005 with only 8348 miles on it in Charleston OR. now with a trike conversion is named Charlize, because I bought in a city called Charleston, my wife suggested Charlie an I said I wasn't going to ride something with a male name. We both like the actress Charlize Theron so Charlize it was and still is as a Trike.

Suzee

My 06 Suzuki C50 is Suzee. Sweet name, bad attitude, jealous streak a mile wide
My 07 Suzuki C90 is Dottie. Named after my mom. Dorothy, nicknamed Dottie. This bike is strong enough to carry me safely where ever I want to go and still look classy doing it. Just like mama.
If mom were still with us, even at her age, she'd be right behind me grinning like an idiot and telling me to go faster!
:Biker:'=
 
My trike has two names. I have a skeleton that rides on it,so I usually call it "Jerry's Ride"
He was named for Jerry Garcia.
Other times I call it "Weeble",'cause weebles wobble-but they don't fall down.
 
Mine Is Called Less We Forget Less we forget
Less we forget
Be The name of my Trike
Three little words
That fit her just right

These three little words I hold so dear given to them
Who passed out of our lives? But who still have a place in our minds
And in our hearts Year after year
Who we still sometime cause us to shed the odd tear

These three little words Hold dear & so true
Are often spoken To those who gave there lives
In fighting during the wars Or who died years after
Serving in that bloody cause

To me Less we forget Is means also to my kin
And my friends I recall too Who sadly passed away?
Who remain as young as they were then
Day after day unlike me or you

This Trike lineage was born As a gift to a man who flew part of a bomber crew
Bombing targets night after night Out Germany way Flying for freedom
Risking his young Life So we may live free Today

Risking his life He for his country & for the peace of his family
Nightly witnessing the ending of the lives of his friend’s
Not even know when or if the war would come to an end

Less we forget is a symbol To remind me & you
To live out our lives fully Is what we should do
To try not to fight or argue with our fellow man
But to try & workout of differences’ as best as we can
 
My '03 Road Glide is named Snarley. She is not the kind of trike for a quiet ride in the country. The motor cracks when she starts, she has a nasty lumpy idle, twist the throttle and get instant response. Above 3k rpm, the sound is like disobey a clap of thunder. She banks on curves and loves the twisties. Snarley.
 
Since my trike is white, I call her "PEARL". I have 5 daughters and, shortly after I got Pearl, I held a contest with them to name my trike. My 3rd oldest won with this name. She got a dinner out of it.
 
The bike. As in "Can we ride the bike today?" or "Are we going to ride the bike today?" or "Why can't we ride the bike today?"

Or occasionally,
That bike. As in "If you mention that bike again, I'm gonna sell it!"
 
The trike is called "Dottie" [after my mum] sometimes referred to as "legs"
Camper trailer is called "Fred" [after my dad] When set up at camp site or rally, we have a sign that reads: "Taj-Ma-Collins" :)

Popcorn anyone.:wave4:

Your trike and I have lots in common.
