I know of at last 2 Motorcycles: VINCENT & a Harley Davidson.

A SHIP called the Nimitz! One of your "male" Admirals? Yes?

Even the gentlemen named it after themselves - the Rolls-Royce?

Grazie,
Even tho the Nimitz is named for an admiral, you'll find every crewman that ever served aboard "her" to refer to it as a 'she.' Most Harley (Harley is a female name here in the states as much as it is a male name) owners refer to their bikes as a "she" as no male wants to be thought of as riding a "he."
Rolls-Royce? No comment.

Yoyodyne, it's not the size of the lens, it's what you can do with it that counts. ;-)

Quite a few old British motorcycles had male names - as well as Vincent there used to be: Brough, James, Francis (Barnett), Scott and, very appropriately for a Vegas forum, Douglas.
