Nickname for Ride

It pretty much depends on the day and what I rode yesterday. Don't want to wear em down. There's Pete, the Tennessee Walker, Ruthie the App, Button the little Morgan, and Annie the thorobred racer:

Hilarious movie!!!
 
1976 R60/6 "Little Blue" (Because she is, well little and blue... it was the "smallest" Beemer BMW sold at that time, and the color is Monza Blue)

1974 R90S "Grey Ghost" (Because the previous owner named it so, to honor its legacy plus the name felt very fitting)

1981 R80G/S "Marfa" (Because I traveled many times to Marfa, Texas and Pinto Canyon Road and area might be some of the best R80G/S terrain)

Now, don't jump me, but I truly believe a horse is in any respect better and faster than anything 'engineers have come up with.
 
My 1994 R11RS is Ruby B. Goin' Ya'll, but my mechanic (and everyone else) calls her Big RED!

Having grown up with horses and having owned horses (don't have any now) I really think all they are good for is getting hurt on. Mile for mile motorcycles are 100 % safer :thumb
