Ducati Monster Forum

Im sure there are a few more of you out there..... People like me who like to name your ride. So, i figured someone should start a thread to see what some of them have been called, also if they have any meaning behind your choice.

Ill start....
2011 Ducati Monster 796 named "Micheala" italian for Who is like god.

and my other rig
1985 Moto Guzzi V65TT named "Beatrice" italian for Voyager through life.

My 1999 M750 - Molly.

Wife's 1988 Hond Hawk GT - Holly

JM

My 2000 750 is Lucretia Borgia

I'm not one for either naming inanimate objects or posting (lurk more!), but this still makes me laugh.

When I got the duc, posted the usual FB image with "guess what followed me home today?" caption.  A buddy meant to reply "holy moosecocks!!" but fat-fingered "Holly Moosecocks!!" instead.

And so, the monster was christened Holly the Hooligan.

My wife named her car Betty. I've always thought about naming my car and bike, but "Baby" seems to work fine for both.

Wife's Mazda2 is "Zumy"

JM

i named my 796 Mona

No name, unless I'm busting a knucke while wrenching, then you would hear me exclaim
"make the beast with two backsing pregnant dog"

Psst ... have a look here:

Ahh ... you get the message

01 Ducati Monster 900Sie- My Precious (said with Gollum's voice)
named by Spidey for me...evidently im a little obsessive.  [roll]

Dog- Darmah
Every old lady i meet in the park 'Oh, is she named for Dhama and Greg?'
me- no the 1978 Ducati SD900  [Dolph]

are you subtley implying that you think this thread might be a derby or something?

I go through so many bikes (42 or 43 and counting), that I don't get attached, hence I don't name them either. 

"ahhh you mother make the beast with two backser" but i only call her that when im pissed, other wise its
"that thing over there"

"The pregnant dog"

or

"The Pig" aka "Piggy"

or

"Yardsale"

Just be careful with that name if you ever cruise in the north of Italy  ;D

Not very original or unique I call my 2006 S2R 1000 "Bella Donna".

The Sleek Black Beauty - S4RS.

My ex was "That Dangerous Blue Mothermake the beast with two backser" - a blue 2004 S4R.

Lm

Red - red on the head fire in the hole. 

Lol, sorry...... I havent found the end of the internet..... I dont get to spend all day on the forums....I didnt realize it was previously threaded..... take your pic..... Other than that, im glad to see others are interested without critisizing.

I named mine Piovere, its rain in Italian. Since i get rained on every other time i go riding.

Yellow Dog

Before Yellow Dog there was the Rat

(http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee91/visigoth9/Rat9001.jpg)

<<<<<<  I called it either Gossamer, or Monstro.

The Bandit 1200 that replaced it is The Beast.

 [laugh] Certainly not a criticism ... just providing the information you were seeking

 ;D

*nudge*nudge*



anyway:

ryoko, anna, and sabine.

although, I never did name my car... other than calling it "the wife"

should name mine I 'spose

maybe

Dirty

Dirtier

and

Pika

I learned to never name something you love (other than kids, dogs, and cats).  Anything you name will disappoint you. 

I never thought of it until I read this thread, When I walk in the garage I usually say "What's up bud"  so I guess his name is Bud........

'04 M1000

It's the only bike or car I've ever named.

Janis (Joplin) 'cause they both -- sing with nasty-sweet voices, have deep-spirited souls, ooze tons of attitude, and smartly dress in red ;-)

Gixxer = Sookie
M796 = Katie.

I low-sided my Gixxer two years ago so the "z" in Suzuki got scratched off the fairing. A little girl at the parking lot said to me: "I like your Suuki."  so Sookie it was.  I used the same concept to name the monster. So Cati became Katie.

Then I guess I'll have to check out those threads lol. Nice one btw... Rofl

I'm not in the habit of naming inanimate objects.  Hell, I have a hard enough time choosing a name for a cat, so I just call it my Ducati.

lol sticking to the basics eh? You could call the cat Kitty as some do...

I must be a contrarian, I call my red Ducati Bluey

Now it makes more sense.
