    I posted elsewhere on this forum about this, but I just got home with my new Bonneville T120. I have lots of shopping to do, luggage, gps, engine guard, etc. But, I name all my vehicles. My HD 750, red, is Pepper. Any suggestions for this pretty ride? (I'll ditch that bag as soon as I get respectable luggage) Thanks for all suggestions.

    Err .... Boney (the Bonnie)?
    Bonny (the Bonnie)?
    Neville (the BonNeville)?
    Benny (the Bonnie)?
    I did think of Trumpy, but my trumps tend to stink:poop:, and the possible association with The Donald may not be entirely welcome - again, a bit like my farts:poop::poop:!!

    Perhaps I should just rest!!:worried:

    Winston was most certainly a Velocette man. Or, pre WW2, a Brough man.

    What about Bluella DeBonneville?

    (I think I've got too much time on my hands! My bikes are Britt and Evie (My bonnevilles) and Boadicea (or Boudicca) and Primose which are my Triumph Sprints. If I ever become rich and buy myself a Vincent Black Shadow it will, of course, be named Armageddon)

    You know I can't, just can't, call any bike, ship, car, aeroplane or other beautiful machine by a masculine name. I don't know why but they are always female unless they are really annoying me when they become 'neuter'.
