I refer to mine as "she" and "her".
Because a fine piece of machinery is like a ‘fine woman'!

As for as names.. well none.

I do like to call her ‘The USS Starship Victory Vision' at times. (Almost had the name put on the side of my fuel tank but chickened out.)

hey, I think I was just offended, please refrain from making lewd, and hurtful commentaryagainst my fellow brethren. What did they do to you? .

I need to start a POLL and see if we can oust "Indiana RoadRunner" from the forum, for referencing the "chicken" in an unfavorable manner. Defamation of character and financial ruin, we are seeking $700 Billion in damages. Please pay promptly, I can send my Paypal info. Thank you and good day.

Having Ness aftter market cans, my wife named it the "beast". She was walking into the garage when I fired the Vision up and it scared the hell out of her. After seeing how other bikers react to it, she now calls it the "Beautiful Beast". l'm still looking for the right name, but that's it for now.

I just can't seem to come up with a good name right now but so far she's the "Red Devil" becuase she looks soooo bad.

The bikes are made in Iowa (or something...) I named mine Bubba. It's a she, but I wanted to honor her rural roots.

Being a radio guy I named my Vision "Sparks". I just hope I never see any coming from the machine.

Have not named her yet. Been toying with the idea of a custom paint scheme next year, which is based off of the attached photo. Then her name would be Black Betty.

When I got my Vision pin striped I also had Marvin the Martian painted on the saddle bags with MARCHING TO MARS painted next to Marvin the Martian under the pin striping.

I sometimes call my bike "Chandra" because it is shaped like a girl at work, big headlights, small midsection, and big round rear. Other times I call it the "Two Wheeled Cadillac". What ever name I give my Vision is always refers to something I like to ride.

I just got done running the heck out of my Vision on a 7 day, 3400 mile trip. I covered the last 1500 miles in 36 hours.  Unbelievably flawless and comfortable.  During the trip I decided to name my bike after the most dominant athlete in history....Secretariat.

He wore a big old turban wrapped around his head, a scimitar by his side,
And every evening about midnight he'd jump on his camel named clyde ... and ride (ray stevens)

We use to sing cadence about Clyde at Fort Bragg.

  • Ahab had a camel name Clyde
  • No one knew how the poor boy died

Well, my Vision is actually CLYDE II
Clyde One lasted from 1980 thru 1997 (Was still running strong when I had to sell him when I moved to Florida - until 9/11 when that event forced me back to Canada) so I figure Clyde II will outlast me. And I find myself calling my wife 'Fatima' from time to time, even though she is Japanese and weighs 96 lbs.....

OH, and here is the full lyrics for Ray Stevens song....

Let me tell you 'bout Ahab the arab, the sheik of the burning sand,
He had emeralds and rubies just a-dripping off-a-him and a ring on every
finger of his hand.
He wore a big old turban wrapped around his head, a scimitar by his side
And every evening about midnight he'd jump on his camel named Clyde.
And ride silently through the night to the sultan's tent
Where he would secretly meet up with Fatima of the seven veils.
She was the swingin'est number one dancer in the sultan's whole harem.
It was like him and her they had a little adam going, you see,
Behind the old bugger's back.
And you could hear him talking to his camel
And as he rode out across the dunes past the oil wells
His voice would cut through the still night desert air
And he'd say, "maaaaaaa oyy oyy oyy !!!"
Which is arabic for "oh, baby ..."
And Clyde would say, "yewrah raaaoww uh uh uh uh uh!"

Well, he brought his camel to a screeching halt at the rear of Fatima's tent,
Jumped off Clyde, snuck around the corner and into the tent he went.
There he saw Fatima laying on a, on a zebra skin rug,
With rings on her fingers, bells on her toes and a bone in her nose, eeeeyye.

There she was friends and neighbors, laying there in all her radiant beauty,
She was eating on a raisin, had a grape, and an apricot, and a pomegranate,
A bowl of chitterlings, two bananas, three hershey bars, four burritos,
Sipping on a frozen margarita, listening to a transistor radio,
Watching the grand ole opry, reading rolling stone magazine and singing rocky
mountain high.
And Ahab walked up to her and he said, "yeeeiiaaaahowowhidehowdihi!"
Which is arabic for, "let's boogie again like we did last summer, baby."
And she said, "oh, Ahab, ah ha uh, Ahab." "crazy, baby."

And that's the story about Ahab the arab, the sheik of the burning sand,
He had emeralds and rubies just a-dripping off-a-him and a ring on every
finger of his hand.
He wore a big old turban wrapped around his head, a scimitar by his side,
And every evening about midnight he'd jump on his camel named Clyde ...

AND RIDE !!!!

Thanks for the lyrics Don! Could it possibly be that today the weather in Vancouver is not suited for riding our favorite 2 wheel mode of transportation? That had to take quite a while to type!!!

Uh-uh. I rode an hour to my Victory dealer to get the re-flash recall done. My dealer is right beside a BIG Harley dealership, and it was fun watching all the Harley guys coming our way to admire my Vision!
Sorry to disappoint, Spaceman, ever heard of 'copy and paste'?
Good weather tomorrow - off for a LONG ride..... (on CLYDE)

Selena... because two years ago at Myrtle Beach bike week, we met the hottest stripper ever at "The Penthouse Club." SHe was so hot, it's almost legendary among the guys that were there.
