Most of us prob think it's hokey nonsense, A727. But that's not the point

Tho I think they are nonsense and wouldn't put one on my bike, Iwasn't really making a big protest or production when I trashedthe one that existed- it was just on the crash bars that I removed and I just snipped it off and chunked it without giving it any thought.

The dealer's F&I guy "gave" me mine when I signed the papers on my bike, andright before I walked out of his office and rang the big bell. Seems to be a tradition around here. Saw the same big bell thing happen at another local competing dealer.

Did you get your bike there too or over at Southside?

RE: yer gremlin bell
It's a terrible pic, but it's the only one where you can see the bell hangin' at the bottom. I helped an ex move to Oakland. I made her stop at the dealership there, told her about the bell and she bought me one.

Guy I bought my bike from left his on it, but I took it off and suggested to my mother in law that she might send me one for Christmas. I still have the pen she gave me for graduation 8 years ago (use it every day) and I thought it would be good to have a bell from her.

Yep I had to ring the bell then all the employees ran over and gave me things after I bought my bike at Bayside over in Portsmouth. One guy was just getting off work I think but he came over and gave methe gremlin bell.

RE: yer gremlin bell
I was riding my07RKC in Ocala, Fl.a couple of weeks ago. My battery went dead while we were eating lunch. Wouldn't start, so we had push start. Went to the HD place down the road. They tested everything. Battery was at 10 volts, stator was only putting out 12.5 volts. Next day, everything was okay. They charged the battery up, and everything seemed to work just fine. Shortly before I left, I was asked by an employee if I had a bell on my bike. I replied, "no". Another employee had one in his saddlebag, so he gave it to me. Afterwards, no more electrical problems. Shortly after leaving, I noticed the horn didn't work. Went to my local HD, and they found the wire was ripped from the connector.
I can't say it was all the gremlins, but I haven't had a problem since my bell. Bike sat for over a week, and started right off. Something that make you go hmmmmmmmmmmm. Just my story.
