Default Got this Guardian Bell from Buddy...Where the hell do I hang it?

OK, got my first Harely, a Deuce, a few weeks ago for my 10th Wedding Anniversary. A buddy gave me a Guardian Bell and said put this on your bike before it's too late. Where the hell are the rest of you superstitious bastards putting these things? I don't want to screw up a tradition!

That's a personal thing. We have 2 bells, one for each of us. Hung them near the grips on each side.

usually it's somewhere low on the bike, quite often I see them right at the bottom of the downtubes just below the front of the motor.

some say the lowest point on the bike. Closest to the ground.

Folklore says they should be close to the road so they can send the demons back to the road and not let them on the bike !!!

Ive seen them off the tip of the front fender too, but mines in front of the motor.

Seems like each type of bike has diferent spots that works best. On my lowrider it's in front of the motor in an existing hole on a frame crossover. On my Ultra there is a good spot between the back tire and the fender. Folks hang them about everywhere.

lol There ain't no tradition! The hype is generated from the people who sell bells.
