John Schoen Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Green and a link to motorbikes, that has to be a Kawasaki. Maybe Mach IV after this beastie and because it has four valves: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kawasaki_H2_Mach_IV Quote

KevB Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Vintage bike? Call it the Bonnevalve. It'll be a triumph of bassiness. Quote

DrBike Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 [quote name='pfretrock' timestamp='1412776567' post='2571914'] Black Lightning? anyway, please check out Richard Thompson's - 1952 Vincent Black Lightning. Think it is on youtube. (sorry to go OT!) [/quote] Red hair and black leather is my favourite colour scheme Quote
DrBike Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 [quote name='keeponehandloose' timestamp='1412802425' post='2572315'] Flapper, as in trouser flapping loud. [/quote] I was going to say Trouser Flapper, but you beat me to it. Plus it's not really following the theme that the OP suggested. Quote
Happy Jack Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Returning to the fray, combining motorbikes with iconic valves, how about DESMO? Quote
Billy Apple Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 I'm suck of all the macho-bloke names. Call it The Gay Daisy Quote

tonyquipment Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 [quote name='Sean' timestamp='1412774586' post='2571887'] What's the logic? [/quote] You heard it from some guy on a bass forum Who do you know has an amp called the sherminator? Quote
BetaFunk Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 (edited) [quote name='Sean' timestamp='1412770002' post='2571787'] Most of the names come from vintage motorcycles but that's not particularly important or relevant in this case. One discarded suggestion so far is [i]Dominator;[/i] I didn't fancy standing on stage with my[i] Dominator [/i]behind be! [/quote] WEM were making Dominators 50 years ago and there is currently a Watkins Dominator. As for vintage motorcycle names: Black Shadow Triton Trident Barracuda Spitfire Lightning Meteor Rapide Comet Constellation Interceptor Tiger Cub Navigator Hurricane Atlas Telstar Starfire Shooting Star Thunderbird Bonneville Dragonfly ...and of course there's the 'I've been kicking this thing over for the last half-hour and it still won't go'.

Happy Jack Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Still not convinced by the marketing possibilities of a boutique valve amp with a puddle of oil under it. Quote
synthaside Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Hrmmm what about the Toledo or Surfster after the seafoam Tolex Quote
EliasMooseblaster Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 If you're looking for something portentous, I don't think anyone so far has suggested Baphometh. If you're not: Frank. Quote
