Bike Nickname
I know we've done this before, but now we have so many new members thought it might be fun to do again. Do you have a nickname for your bike? I'll start it out, the Nomad is "Destination Unknown".

Mine was dubbed KawaTanker by my friends. The BMW is Magic Carpet, named by the former owner.

Mine was originally "Big Blue". After the paint I've gone with "Tangerine Dream".

I tagged mine with "Nan" after my mother-in-law. It was from her inheritance to my wife that made it possible for me to buy the bike.
Plus she was a nice lady.

Mine is vandross II. My truck is Luther, my last bike was Vandross, after it was murdered on the freeway by an inattentive cage driver I bought my nomad. So vandross was fitting.

My V-65 was 'baby', the nomad came to be known as 'new baby' I even received a sticker
from one of my sons to put over the Kawasaki name on the fusl panel of the speedo/odo. But in '01 a friends 12 y.o. daughter was dying of cancer, and she wanted to go on a motorcycle cruise with us and be a biker babe for the day. We made that happen and she truly had a blast riding in a group of 175 bikes and 260 people from Barre, Vt. to the top of Mt. Washington, N.H. and back in one days ride. She passed away three weeks later. My Nomad has a second name, 'Hollie".
