Describing an absence of anthropomorhic nonsense as "boring" is like complaining that there are no tits on page three of the Sunday Times....
It's a machine FFS, it isn't responsible for anything
You mean when you get home you don't pat "her" on the tank and say "Thanks" either?
You're being even sillier now.....

Even so have you never found yourself after a long ride in the pissing rain or doing a ton ten saying things like come on baby not long or come on baby your nearly there? ........
Just me then? Oh...

errr
It was my understanding that the term 'anthropomorphic' was the cogniant act of endearing human form or attributes to something non human.
Simply calling an inanimate object a name would therefore non technically qualify.

I call her Nelly. I load her like a donkey and she never complains; she brings me back home sound and safe...
As above.

i thought everyone tapped their bikes tank and said thanks?
Is it the same on a false Tank
if I do it on where the tank is when I'm riding my bike (Piuma, archibald, Howitzer, don juan, sparticus, 798) well it would look like Im doing a Tesco thing
Every little helps
I call Neddy the GS because my friend Eddy has one. I have a GSA and Nelly sounded sexier. Why can't I have a donkey called Nelly?

whats in a name (a bunch of C's)
Well I get what you mean exactly but you do realise I ride a BMW F650 GS twin, I have to be carefull
I think its generaly a german name for the German bike and may have a bearing on the namers age and usualy more common to name it after something Heavy maybe the Guy's who dont want to make it male or female go for the german milatary vehicles names. I bet the top name for a 11 or 12 would be Panzer
Imagine a Triumph for example named a girl from the sixties (Born) most likely to be Lisa, Mary, or Susan compared to todays Grace, Ruby or olivia or an adventure triumph could be one of the bunch of C words as in: crusader, cromwell, churchill,centaur,comet, centurion, Conqueror, cheiftan and challenger. Then you realy could pat your Tank 
I supose I could be carefull and choose the German Name of : Frederica (interesting meaning).
naaa I'm sticking with my rugged military German superior Hard wear F650GS (PUMA)
PS: I tucked it in last night all cozy in the garage
