My Honda is a ...

I don't have a name to contribute as I think CB1100 works okay, but the best motorcycle name ever was the Elsinore.

When the Elsinore came out in 1973-4, I was an assembly mechanic at a small Honda shop on the edge of Beverly Hills. I had just set-up 3 Elsinores, and needed to start them up and test ride them. It was noon on Friday, payday, and the mechanic, the service manager, and I needed to get to the bank.

So we jumped on the Elsinores, no helmets, etc, and rode half a mile down a main street to the bank, cashed our meager paychecks, and rode back. That was the only time we did that, as the manager had received some nasty phone calls while we were gone.

Anyway, the Elsinore name was a great one, but a couple years later, the track closed. Same thing happened when Honda came out with the Ascot in 1982 - the track closed 2 years later. Glad Yamaha had the Daytona name, and not Honda.
