Name the Bike !!!!!

Post by autofetish »

Hello Team

Looking for some help and input in the naming of my bike. :read2:

My name is Will and some time ago on this forum I was shown a picture of a bike called “Jade warrior”

I wanted a go…. I didn’t want to build it didn’t want to own it just have a drive around a carpark…. :-#

7 years later … I’m slowly putting together the 3rd bike with a plan to race this competitively at ½ and 1-mile events and general racing stuff down runways for fun :twisted:

I’m heavy involved with universities and in the future would be looking for formal sponsorship to help fund trips to the USA so we can’t call it the “Penetrator “ :tongue3:

The Bike needs a name like all legendary land speed vehicles, and the unwritten rule is you cant use a name that's been used already [-(


• Ford 999 Racer – 91.37 mph.
• The Stanley Rocket – 127.66 mph.
• The FIAT Mephistopheles – 145.89 mph.
• Sunbeam – 150.87 mph.
• Babs – 170 mph.
• Blue Bird – 174.88 mph.
• The Mystery (aka Sunbeam 1000 hp) – 203.79 mph.
• The Golden Arrow – 231.446 mph

Any ideas ??????????

Being a staunch "Motorhead" fan, I would suggest "Overkill" - I think that is quite appropriate.....

More MH inspired names:

"Over the Top" - OTT

"Bomber".

I think you would rule out "Orgasmatron".....

I was always a bit worried about "Lost Johnny" - it sounded like he had mislaid his prophylactic...

"Metropolis" was another good one...

It is a shame that "Mephistopheles" has been used. I really like that.

I always liked the fact that John Webster named his digger "Hephaestus" . Greek God and armourer to the Gods.

There are some great sources in Classic Greek Mythology, so give that a try.

.. Or just use "Challenger" as per Dodge and the Space Shuttle....

All the Aces. A touch presumptuous perhaps as a name but a good one too.,
