Burgman spelling contest

I'm trying to change Bergman to Burgman under my name and I forgot how to do that. It does seem like we are having a contest to see how far off burgman can be mis-spelled

I always thought it was Burghmann.

Tubeck, go to 'Profile'

Then select 'Signature'

You should now be able to modify your signature.

Nice thread by the way. Made me chuckle!!!!

Question:
Are our bikes spelled
Silver Wing or
Silverwing
and are they to be abbreviated
Swing or
SWing or
S-Wing ?

All I care about is that we don't call ourselves Swingers.
People might think we only ride to swap spouses.

S-Wing sounds like a cool new Star Wars fighter.

I was just came back from a short drive...saw three boigmans.

:lol!:

I do like s-wing. except my fingers don't automatically know where the - is on the keyboard

I vote for SWing.

Hi All,

My preference goes with "SWing" just like GaryL... just as a matter of note though... I went to an ALR (American Legion Riders) event on 9 - 11 and just happened to come across only the 2nd maxi-scooter I've seen around here in some three years. Was black like my SWing but had been "triked" by an outfit called "TrikeIt", or some such thing as that. Looked really good and was ridden by an old veteran who needed the 3 wheels because of some back problems.

Anyway, thought I'd register my spelling for Burgs as "Brrrrrrgman".

On the bike it's "Silver Wing", so technically that's what we should be using as the full name. However, I've seen it spelled "Silverwing" quite often in various online forums, etc. I pretty sure that I switch back and forth when I type it, which is an obvious sign that dementia is setting in. The abbreviation I prefer is "SWing", and I've seen that used in some forums. Of course, I've seen about a dozen other different abbreviations and they all looked fine to me. I figure as long as the other person knows what you're referring to it must be good.

BTW DickO, "Brrrrrrgman" made me laugh out loud. I have to admit that until this thread I wasn't sure which way it is actually supposed to be spelled. Actually, I'm still not sure. That dementia is acting up again. What did you say your name was?

Why don't we make it easy on ourselves and just call em burgers?

OK!!! SWing but saying S and then Wing. and burger.
I have a burger and like the name better than burgman.
Now that we have that straightened out, I forget. was that berger or burger?

You want fries with that?

Gotta have fries with yer boigah.
