ORIGINAL: SoCal_Pappy

They were & still are also called "GREMLIN BELL\s" - And you CAN NOT buy one for yourself as it WILL NOT work unless it is given to you...

They have been around & I have always had one on ALL my putts for many-many-many years...
That's the way I have always heard it. Someone has to give you the bell. Also If you buy a used bike the original owner should not remove the bell but leave it to protect the new owner. And the the new owner should leave the bell as well but could add another bell if they wish. I swear I'm not some freak...lol..

I have one that Sean gave me. It is just really neat tradition IMO.

I've always had one. I even tried to transfer the one from my old bike to the new and my friends wouldn't have it. The next week Igot a new one from a firend. It's on there, now.

I don't have one because no one has given me one yet, and from what I hear it has to be given to you as a gift.

Got the same bell I had on my last two bikes. My son gave it to me. Gotta keep the road gremlins away.

Yep, I have a ride bell. It was given to me by my son. The bell on his sporty came with the bike when he bought it. It bothers me to ride without a bell but then I'm kind of an old fart and set in my ways.
