Took mine off when I sold the bike last year. Never put it on my new bike. When exactly are those demons supposed to get you?

Put it on there and get double the protection...

I only have one bell but it has over 50k miles on it, given to me by my wife. No breakdowns or stupid cagers have taken me out yet. I would use 10 bells if it helps. I don't say I am safe because of them but it can't hurt...

Sure, hang 'em both, they won't cancel each other out. But if you decide to take one off, be sure to leave the one given to you by the most experienced rider!!
