Last weekend I gave my uncle his first bell. Gave it to him on sat. He went away. Not sure if he put it on. That Monday on his way home from work bam nailed from behind on a hill at a stop sign. Went to see the bike and the bell was on. Felt real bad.
Got one as a present from my daughter, put it on recently and since then the bike has re-developed a primary knock (at the dealer yesterday) and a pipe fell on the front fender, a ding and some scratches, SMFH! Dealer can fix the fender, about $150. Reminds me when I was a young driver, had a St. Christopher (Patron Saint of safe travel) medal in 2 of my earlier cars, I crashed them both, I was fine, the cars not so much. Never used a St. Christopher medal again. Superstition I know...

Thats funny right there, your fine and the cars not so much and you think the medal did no good.
