#1~If you were Mr Miagie and you told Daniel to choose he may choose this one....or maybe the whizzer. But go with me here.
I would name this bike "Danielson"
#2~This bike is newer but it's still old school charm. This bike deserves a woman's name. Something used long ago but still used today.
Like.... Clara.
#3~This is the Hot Rod of the bunch. This is the bike old timers will tell you they used to have as a child. This is the bike Harley Riders will stare and stare. This bike is also American Made as far as I know anyway. So this bike deserves an all american name that stands for freedom and all that jazz. It needs a dude's name I think. A name common in the old days when America was still young but rarely used today.
Something like.... Hayden.
Large, I like the choices you gave me, But I'm unsure about giving any of the bikes a woman's name. Someone just might think the wrong thing if I said "I'm going to hop on Clara and take her for a ride."
Even so, I like the name. It's one of the top contenders.
As to the Whizzer, this formerly all-American bike is now made in Taiwan. That doesn't mean I like it any less. You're right about the dude's name, and I just thought of one that harkens back to the era you refer to, but also has the police link to it. Does anyone remember the campy old 1950s police drama, "Highway Patrol"? Broderick Crawford starred in that, and I remember watching the reruns when I was in high school back in the 70s. I still remember one of his famous sign-off lines, "Remember, leave your blood at the Red Cross or your local Blood Bank. Not on the highways!"
So, I think the Whizzer just might end up with the name "Broderick". That is, unless someone comes up with a better name.

- but I have to say I love the paintjob and the colour combination its absolutely gorgeous! it isnt one of the combos that they did for the 'girlie cars' concepts of the late 50's by any chance?
