Yeah mines called "My Bike" or "My R3".

I have a hard time naming inanimate objects. Just doesnt feel right to me I guess.

I know... Real Original.

Ok. I know this is going to be original....

My bikes name is "R3". Short for R3-D2. Yes, I am a Star Wars fan and most of us Star Wars fans instantly came up with this idea independently on our own only to come here and see other folks calling it the same. It is my trusty and loyal little companion when I venture out away from home.

My girlfiend named my bike Angry Bird and it stuck. That name is also the colour of my bike when someone tells me their bike is "Raven".

A reference to the movie "The Matrix" perhaps. :)

The R3, the other bike is the FZ. I ride with people who take naming their bike very seriously. This is coming from someone who calls their cat "cat" (his actual name is Slayer, after the band).

I never refer to "Rayne" as my bike, or my motorcycle; only as Rayne...and all who know me also refer to her by name. She is apart of the family. Rayne is shortened from Black Rayne.


Have a safe riding weekend from Rayne to:
Yamasumi
R3-D2
Angry Bird
Sentinel
