I like HD "Night Rod" ....but if they had a Japanese pirate.CBARRGHH600ARRGGHARRGH that would be even better. Monster is the best in sort of a Herman Munster sorta way.

holy crap!

I totally had that idea for a plate... well, obviously not as drawn out... but imagine a flat black honda, skull and crossbones painted on the fairings, and a plate that read "CB ARRR" (we only get 6 characters in HI)

Not to threadjack, but I had never heard of a Norton Commando before. Before my time I guess. Anyways, front page of eBay was this bike - very very cool.

Take a look;

Triumph Bonneville "AMERICA"!

I love irony.

Sounds too much like the title of a porn movie...

I thought of one more good one (IMO) after I did my original post...

Victory "8-Ball"

Cars have much better names than motorcycles:
Stingray
Cobra
Viper
Spitfire
Phantom
Challenger
Etc. etc.....I could go on.

Are MC marketing/design teams that less creative??
