My blue/silver I/S is called "SilverValk". Named my corporation after it, too!
My Garmin GPS is named "Goose".

I don't think mine has a name but I have heard the wife call it my mistress in converstion. I assume that
happens when she is jealous.

I've heard similar comments. I've told her that I love her more than the Valk but I enjoy riding them both. |

I waited 30 years to buy my 2nd brand new motorcycle. The first was a '71 CT70H way before I had a driver's license. After that it was always used bikes. Before the I/S Valk, my regular ride was a '81 Wing. As much as I loved the engine on a Wing, I just couldn't stomach all the scooter-works plastic of the newer models. When the first standard Valk came out, I became just interested... when they rolled out the I/S model, I was plain ol' smitten! My 1999 Red/Black CF was brand-new-still-in-the-crate when I bought her sight unseen in 2001. The name came to me almost immediately: Maggie! Her full name is Lady Magdalene de la Voyage (owing to my French heritage), but she's always Maggie to me. Rod Stewart even wrote a song about her... Closing in on 100K miles and she still looks/runs great! Seeing where there's still nothing to compare to this bike available these days, I guess I'll shoot for another 100K!

I've only ever named one vehicle. Ironically it was my FLSTF (Fatboy). I called it Rosie because it was loud and obnoxious and heavy...
Maybe I should find a name for the Valk. Camryn Mannheim maybe? What's Duane Chapman's wife's name again???
