In Italian they often call a good looking car “la bella macchina”
Yes, as 'macchina' (as well as 'bicicletta' [bike]) are both female terms.
But yeah, I think I never heard of women referring to their bikes or cars as 'he'.
My other half refers to all her cars as male: - "Look at Francis - he could do with a wash," she might say.
Personally, I don't go in for anthropomorphisation of any kind.
I love this bike! What size is it?
