RE: "Skull's"
Well obviously I can only speak for myself but, I kinda like haveing a few on the bike. The reasons for me are twofold
1.) It reminds me to wear my helmet, after all I have a wife and 4 year old son to support.
2.) Being a fan of the Punisher (Comic Book Character for the non-geeks in the crowd) I thought I would add a few to the bike.
I must say if I can ever scrape up enough money to get the Wideglide I want, I will have to add some flames to go with the skulls on that bike to perhaps go for a "Ghost Rider" sort of thing. Eh we will see, after all being a Janitor it takes awhile to save up enough money to support my Bike habit.

The skull has been an image of intimidation for eons. Look at the Jolly Roger â skull and crossbones. Biker culture strives for the same dark, bad-boy image. Black is the quintessential color for Harleys, black is still the preferred color for a Harley rider's leather. Tattoos: same thing. How many BMW riders do you see sporting a bad *** tattoo or wearing a gaudy black T-shirt? They don't decorate with skulls either. Just Harley riders...and wannabes.

It is a proven fact that skulls on your bike give a 10% boost in horsepower, chrome skulls give ya 13%.
In reality, skulls ward off gremlins 100 times better than a gremlin bell. When you ride with both, you have triple protection.
