Can I reuse my gremlin bell?

No, the bell may have been given to you but it was meant for the bike and when you retired the bike, the bell must also be retired but kept as a fond memory of the safe miles traveled while all three of you were together. It now becomes a legacy of the past and constant reminder of what once was. The new bike will bring a new era in your journey and requires a new bell to continue the legend.

I gave my husband his first bell and when he traded in his sportster for the Road King, he kept that bell and put it on the Road King. A friend of ours who went along when we purchased the Road King, gave him a second bell in honor of the new bike, but that first one bell isn't going anywhere. Nor are the two he gave to me for my bike. The bike may be sold or whatever, but those bells will come along with me on whatever ride I'm on. Oh and I'm in agreement with JBaker, they do work great. Never a problem from any gremlins.

Hmmmm... marketing genius. I gave my husband his first bell and when he traded in his sportster for the Road King, he kept that bell and put it on the Road King.

Yeah but you don't see too many gremlins on the road these days...maybe a pacer or chevette but not too many gremlins...

The bell on my Train was given to me by the best woman I've ever known in my life...it's personal between her and me, and it's graced the last 3 bikes I've owned over the last 10 years...there's love and magic in that bell and it stays with my ride and me...nuff said...

You failed to mention the "left Hand Threaded Chrome High Speed Muffler Bearing Plate" Remember speacial ordered parts take 6-8 weeks. (what where you thinking? Poor guy wouod have had his bike all torn apart and yet not have all the peices.)
