Old timers call their bikes "motors", short for motorcycle.

Glad you got an answer to your question. I see people ask questions here from time to time and get harpooned by the "knowledge is power" posters here. I like to look at it his way, There maybe no dumb questions, but there are definitely dumb answers.

Don't feel foolish, I bet there were at least 5 or 6 other guys who had the same question but didn't want to ask.
