Name That Bike

Ok, so I've gotten the bug to build my bike, and the time is getting close. It going to take some time.

But all cool customs need a name, and I can't decide what to call this one. I have a few choices in the poll that I am considering, let me know what you think.

Here is a pic of the rolling chassis. Might help in everyones decision. I am leaning twords the name "Dollar Bill"

A little info on the project, full air ride, front and back, NO KICK STAND will sit on the frame. 300 rear, 23" front, 7 gallon tank, all sorts of goodies.

Given the choice of names, dollar bill sounded more cool. If you drop the R at the end of dollar it makes it sound as wicked as it looks. First thing that came to my mind was scorpion...low to the ground and spread out, and it'll sting you if you mishandle it!

If I stick with the name I will drop the R and it will be "Dolla Bill" the rear fender will have the name on it as I plan to airbrush it into the paintjob. The part I hate is the time it takes to finish something like this. But it will come together, and hopefully the dollar bills won' run out first

Something with Fantasy in it: My Fantasy, The Fantasy.. you get the idea. That is one fantastic frame. Mind boggling; The Boggler no, not that.

Outtasight? Scorched Fantastic? Warped Fantasty?
