You need the ride bell rejuvination ritual. Get a fifth of tequila, a hooker, and a fresh chicken foot. Tie the ride bell around your neck with a piece of string. Get drunk, ride the hooker,then do the chicken dance while rubbing that chicken foot all over your head.The more people that are around to witness this ritual the better! Now, with any luck, the hooker will flea and you wont have to pay her cause she thinks you are totally nuts, and your ride bell will re-absorb it's majic.
This is biker black majic and should only be used once in your lifetime!

^In addition to what he said, I would accept a new bell from a friend and give the old one a place of honor.

So, let me get this straight....

You totaled a bike and walked away and are wondering if your bell needs replacing???

I'll give you $10,000 for that bell, and you're getting screwed.

Exactly... Hello guys - he's alive isn't he? It did it's job well!

The bell from my former bike was the first thing I put on this new one - before I even rode it off the lot. It's a miracle I'm still here - got up and walked away in fact, so I'd say it did it's job.

Obviously the bell dint help you from totalling your bike. Chunk that SOB as far as you can if not melt it in your fireplace. Then wait til your buds buy you a new one.

Totalled the bike and still here....I'd put the bell on the new bike....right beside a new one. No one says you can't have two. I have one from a friend and one from my kids. Kinda balances out the guards.
