The showdown has arrived. The battle of the Britains. The Vincent versus the Triumph. At least there’s no bias around here.

Funny old world - all those fantastic, imaginative names and we end up with a final between two well known, dare I say commonplace names, Black Shadow v Bonneville!! :zany_face:

And… en-route to the final I voted for both!! :joy:

Perhaps we should now have a competition for the worst names. Francis-Barnett Plover anyone…?

What! Good grief people…get a grip
I’ll be throwing in the red flag for a review, a check on VAR and Hawk-Eye and then a complete recount with all the culprits named.
Triumph Forum indeed, pffft…

The votes have been counted. The votes have been RE-counted. @iron has been given a sedative and all the Vincent voters will be receiving new aliases before he wakes up.

The motorcycle with the best name is…

The Vincent Black Shadow!

Thank you for playing and look our for the next extensive waste of time that will be coming soon.

I’m really disappointed that a triumph did not make the top slot. And on a triumph forum :enraged_face:

Maybe we should repeat the exercise and see what is the best alpha-numeric sigil for a motorbike? Would a T120 beat a Z900???
