Sylvia Plath's "Ariel"

Ariel was Shelley's biography also. I once had a British "Ariel" motorcycle which went out of business before Sylvia Plath wrote this, I had a 1956. I wonder, there is a form of romantic poetry, song, etc., that had to do with motorcycle riding to visit ones love interest and riding away, as the British were at one time very large producers of motorcycles, the Ariel, referred to as the "gentleman's motorcycle" even a lambskin seat on some like the "Square Four". It had a "jumping horse" on its gas tank pads, Britain's "nigger" instead of America's "Indian"? Just some thoughts of a rider, loved to freeze with "Sylvia" on the back.
