Re: WOOOOHOOOOOO we have lift off!!!
quite a number of people have named their bikes.
I can't think of a name for mine yet, so it is still nameless.

Re: WOOOOHOOOOOO we have lift off!!!
Know what you mean not being able to wait and is a great high first time ya fire it up!
I name each and every one! LOL. Funny thing is each has a personality all their own. Same kit on same bike and will be different then it's sister.
They are my babys. Be wrong not to name em.

How are you going to mount it?
