Where do you hang your gremlin bell on your tuber? | ||
| Yo_barry |
Has to be on the front, otherwise the gremlins will get on before they hear the bell.  | ||
| Harleyelf |
The muffler yoke works. | ||
| Yo_barry |
Front Hiem joint works too. | ||

Not taking any chances....mines on a ring in the front axle.  | ||

Gremlin Bells? Good grief. Who came up with this nonsense anyway? I've been riding since '64 and only heard about these things in the last couple of years and have only seen them on cruisers. (Message edited by robinpeck on February 05, 2012) | ||

They've been around as long as deer whistles. | ||

Are you going to make me have to google it? | ||
| Buellathebuzzer |
Hey, you think we should take a perfectly good job away from google? | ||
| Fahren |
OK. So never heard them called "gremlin" bells before. Oh, brother. | ||

Re: all the bells and whistles Deer whistles?...they don't work either. (Message edited by robinpeck on February 05, 2012) | ||

A Bull is not a HARLEY don't degrade it! | ||

During hunting season I run 2 deer whistles turned backwards to attract them. | ||
| Coxster |
I have one ONLY because a brother-in-law gave it to me, but it's not on the bike. | ||

Gremlin whistles: during Gremlin rutting season, when the male Gremlin is hot on the chase after a potential mate, the chase will often carry both in a lustful frenzy across a road. If you are driving over 35 mph with a gremlin whistle installed, the gremlin whistle will emit a magic sound, audible only to little, pointy gremlin ears, which will cause them to stop short in their tracks and start singing show tunes until after you pass. Weird stuff. | ||

Wow fahren, amazing! I once got ambushed by a herd of cows. They surrounded me and made me slip on gravel, bumping my bike at 0mph. Bastards, broke my clutch lever! Maybe a gremlin bell might of worked? I do not know just wondering, will id divert a cow ambush too? | ||

You aren't supposed to buy your own Gremlin Bell. Otherwise, it won't work. It's yet another useless accessory with a story used to promote it. | ||
| Gmaan03 |
Really? That is why I am having bad luck.......... crap this thred should of been created 5 years ago! Maybe I would still have my truck and dog. | ||
| Harleyelf |
Jerome, that's a great story about the cow ambush! I think the proper bell involved to get their attention would drag the ground if mounted on your frame. | ||

I'm not superstitious and don't believe in gremlins unless that's another term for bad drivers! But my mom and sister each got me one for christmas... so i'll have to find a place for them on both bikes! | ||

the left side of my 96s1 front motor mount has an unused hole up there just waiting for some leather and a bell. | ||
| Dave_02_1200 |
The bell is supposed to be on the cow. Loud bells save lives. | ||

I had one given to me that I mounted on the front Heim joint. For the next few months I was crapping myself that I had something loose in the front suspension because I kept hearing a "ting!" every time I hit the brakes. Finally figured out it was the bell hitting the fender. Then it snagged under the fender on a hard stop and snapped the string and disappeared. | ||
| Fahren |
That was no fender - that was a gremlin! LOL | ||
| Triman023 |
By S2T didn't like the bell and shook it off after a few months. I don't think a bell is going to give me protection anyway.. | ||
| Dave_02_1200 |
Those little bells are supposed to go on your cat so it can't sneak up and kill songbirds. | ||

the only sure fire way to scare Gremlins off is with a REALLY Big F--King Hammer! |
