America's first line of defense against the toque
Don't know if it's us against the toque, or them against the trucker hat, but hey, someone has to take a stand somewhere.

¿Que? No comprende.
Have you noticed that some riders have a small bell hanging off their motorcycle frame or handlebars? Have you wondered what the purpose is? Well, you have come to the right place. That little bell is more than decoration, it serves a very important purpose – it wards off gremlins, also known as evil road spirits.

[/quote]You see, there are motorcycle gremlins that LOVE to ride, but they are also mischievous little devils and they cause all sorts of problems for you while you are riding. Some say they are responsible for that old lady in the minivan not seeing you and cutting you off in traffic. Or, you may be having trouble shifting smoothly, your battery goes dead, your turn signal suddenly refuses to work, an oil spill appears out of nowhere, you hit a patch of black ice, etc – you get the idea. Those little gremlins look for trouble and try to steer your bike towards it.Now, once you get a bell on your scoot – it wards off these attacks from the little gremlins, not allowing any more to get onto your bike. If you already have some gremlins riding with you, they will get trapped in the hollow of the bell, and the constant ringing will drive them insane – causing them to lose their grip and fall to the roadway.
Do you have the protection of a gremlin bell? If you buy a gremlin bell of your own, the power works. If you receive the gremlin bell as a gift – the powerful magic of the bell is doubled.

Well got a couple small items for the Slingshot from my daughter... I got a gremlin bell and the padded center console cover and a load of stuff for my GoPro to allow me to run it powered all the time when running in the Slingshot, no more waiting after I turn it on to start recording and no batteries to worry about.
I love where you put your gremlin bell!

@KayTwo, that version is the short version of the legend of the gremlin bell. Yes, the bell is supposedly double in strength if given to you as a present. However, the reason for the bell working so well is that the gremlins can't stand the pitch of the bell. That is what stops new gremlins from getting on the bike, and the ones already there go to it to try to stop the sound. They crawl into it, and slip out from the slick surface inside. That is why placement is crucial. It should be as low as possible, so that they don't fall out onto the bike again to cause more mischief.
Also, rumor has it, that when they fall out, when they hit the road it is what causes potholes. If true, that would explain Indiana roads....
