Now that just makes too much common sense, not sure that's allowed here.

only 1 rule, just make sure whatever you give him is detachable.

The bells are non-specific and should be placed at a low point on the bike.

You might put several of those bells together to form something like this for either of you

I didn't want to post them all but I think this one applies in this case.

Guardian Bell Rules:
Rule 346 - If said Guardian Bell is given by the riders girlfriend or wife it is required that said girlfriend or wife must "polish his bell" at his request without hesitation.

Be careful. The last thing you want to hear is: "Honey, I appreciate it. But I ride a Harley. This bell is made for a Kawasaki ZR1000BTKX1sc-A, early 2014."
