I know exactly what you mean. Mine's a real mix of parts. I was going to call it Mongrel but it turns that in Italian mongrel is bastido ..
so it's currently unnamed.

Parts list so far is ...

Wiring loom, idiot lights, headlight/bikini fairing, front mudguard and oil cooler - Monster (various versions)
Cylinders/pistons and cams - ST2
Swinging arm - Metmachex
Oil cooler lines - Hypermotard 796
Speedo - Daytona Velona 80
Ignition - Ignitech TCIP4 with APS
Coils and HT leads - ExactStart
Custom end pipes for exhaust

Was thinking about a more Italian name ... "Tutti Frutti" or "Tutti Voice" are currently contenders.
Will finally decide just before new number plate is ordered.

Rickman used Metisse for their very nice Nickel plated, framed specials. It means Mongrel, but sounds a bit French to me?

Or maybe Chimera, which I think means crossbreed and is again probably French? I think TVR has already used that one?

Then of course there is the traditional English Bitsa, from bits of this and bits of that.

The owners club for Norton/AJS and Matchless hybrids call themselves Hycam, which can be interpreted in different ways, much like Hyperformance.
What about something along those lines? Like Hycati?

I'd settle for Il Mostro from the bible, the whale that swallowed Jonah.

A Gazza is a Magpie in Italy, which is interesting as I like hoarding shiny things too!
