    If you're going to use an Italian name for the bike you should really use a french name for the Renault.
    Renault Dynamique = merde français. That sounds much better.

    Or if it's really a big pile of French crap maybe you could get Vivi to come up with a really suitable name?
    It's Lilac... not pink!

    I want a purple Vito, so I can change the lettering on the back and call it Vimto.

    My current van is called Helsing, the van I had many years ago was called Morrison.

    Out of the bikes only Debz' Fazer has a name: Donkey, 'cos it's her donkey bike for commuting, shopping etc. Following the equine theme I suggested she calls her Tuono Rocky, as it's her Italian stallion.

    I haven't ever thought of the right name for either my car or my bike but your names have given me inspiration and my bike is now called Arthur after my dad whose inheritance helped me get biking in the first place, thanks dad. :-*

    Congratulations on going BLUE Caz!
    It's all about the ride!

    My 125 was skygo macapower (though I called her pile of crap ;D) the v-twin's name is SteveO cos he used to be yellow and reminded me of Steve, the cbr was red, cos, well, he was red, and the gixxer, Steve called him Pedro but I don't like it, so I call him G.

    I call the car Vicky cos it's a Vectra and the bike gets called all sorts of names depending on how well it's working/not working but most of the time it's called a pile of sh*t or the expensive garden ornamet ;D
