Clearly, not having your gremlin bell in the correct place allowed the gremlin to climb aboard and wreak havoc with your sheet metal.

i dont get the whole "DEBATE" over the wave thing. where's the downside to being cordial?I wave. I can afford it. don"t wave if thats your inclination. Might b less road rage if cagers did the same. MO

My buddy's fender is dented as well, but there's no bell. It was from touching down after a nice bagger wheelie...

Sounds like you're just an a$$hole in general. Lol. Just flipping you crap. I agree.

I ALMOST did this same thing when I picked up the new UC! Fortunately I realized what COULD happen before it did...

Yep, got one in my front fender from the strobe lights I have mounted under the triple tree, thought it would be ok. Buddy mounted deer whistles under there and he has two small dimples in his, call's them his Smitty(my nickname)dents. Gonna cost me about the same to get mine fixed. Can't believe HD wants 700.00 for a freaking fender..

The bell can't hurt and is often a conversation starter. Course I have the HD chrome bell at only $799.95.....yeah right.

You know nobody takes this stuff seriously, right? It's about having a little fun. I'm sure you "get" having fun.
