My '01 was called "Incentive" at first. Reason being, I had an agreement with my wife; I smoke one cigarette, I sell one bike (only buying one). I agreed before really thinking, but haven't looked back.
The next thing I know, she is calling it "Big Girl". Not sure why, but I'm not one to argue with her. After totaling that one, we haven't come up with a name for the '07 replacement yet. I have thought of "Blackie" because it is a Midnight Star and I really like the old radio show "Boston Blackie". Only problem is that I don't live in Massachusetts.

Well guys. I kind of think of her as Mother Freedom. That's because I feel like it's just within my grasp when I ride her.
Kinda like the song says...
Hey tomorrow
You're not so far away
Mother freedom
Will know you well someday

Hmmm, wouldn't have anything to do with a headless thompson gunner would it?
Check out a song by Dr Hook and the Medicine Show called Roland the Roadie. You'll see why I said warped. LOL They also did Acapulco Goldie, Get My Rocks Off, Freakers Ball, I Got Stoned and I Missed It and some others.

Exactly what she is... "White Noise".
Sometimes call her "Thumper", though, which is what she does. I go back and forth.

I think of her as Black Beauty.
My BIL used to call her Oprah after *you know who.*
I may come up with another name after riding her for a while, but for now Black Beauty or just Beauty suits her.

kind and loving..
and your thinking about that movie with the pig...
it makes me laugh everytime I hear the word babe...

Got ya.
I was listening to Lawyers, Guns, and Money by Warren Zevon when I saw your post. That's why I thought of Roland the headless Thompson Gunner first
I know the Dr. Hook song in fact I saw him in concert a few times years ago. Good choice by the way
