canine confusion

So there was a guy sitting in his office in Osaka one day, and he's thinking about starting a new car and motorcycle company, and he's wondering:

"So what shall I call my new business? I need a catchy name, a name that tells passers-by what the company's about......hmmmmm, how about 'Car and Bike Repairs'? No, that's a bit boring. I need to think about this.....How about 'Mr. Car and Bike Repairs'? That's more like it, but I’m sure I can do better than that. I need something with impact. Something that stands out. Something memorable and transport related......Here's a good one: 'Cars Fix Bike Bananas'. Yes, it's starting to sound good now. Let me see.......Wait! I've got it! I know! It's obvious! Why didn't I think of it before? This is the one! This is it!"

No, it is referring to squirrel-performing members of the genus Odobenus rosmarus.

Maybe he was going for a 'Pimp my Ride' style name.
