Put one over your workbench so gremlins won't loose your tools...

 

According to 'old legend', you should only put one on your bike if it was given to you as a gift, purchased by someone other than yourself.

That is, if you believe in all the Gremlin Bell stuff.

 

Mine is in the same place as yours.

 

Well, I heard about the bell and gremlins form a buddy before I got my bike, but did not know about the gift thing untill I ran across the bells, bought one and the little story card came with it. Now,I have no friends who are sentimental or superstitious so mine is hung, in middle. Had not heard of the brass bell on the left story, but I recently ran across a neat bell formed into an angel, brass and copper. Also did not know it was bad luck to take one off and was not sure two would be ok. Instead of replacing, I guess I will unbalance the ride and hang the angel on the left shift rod. Good luck to all.

 

So is it ok to buy and hang a brass bell on the left handle bar your self?
I like the sentiment behind this.

Well, I actually started this thread to see if any of you needed bells.
It's supposed to be something given to you.

I'm buying one for my dad for Christmas, however, nobody I know is superstitious enough to buy me one... so I'm without for now.

 

My bike came with one on it, was going to buy one for myself, now not sure if I should take off the one that came with it, or what to do? What would you all do if your bike came with one already on it?

 

I'd leave it dude. Bad Karma to pull it off. So long as you didn't buy it for yourself, it should work just as well. Consider it an anonymous gift.
