My version of a \"Guardian Bell\"
I was on a m/c ride this past weekend with some friends. I own a Honda VTX 1800 that is "Uranium Green". My buds are always bustin my chops about the color (close to JD green). Well, we were taking a rest break on the way home, and one of the ladies kept asking if that was a tractor on my bike. I thought she was nuts, so I looked, and saw this (look below the headlight). /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif Turns out, one of the guys picked this up at a Cracker Barrel at Myrtle Beach not long ago, as they were riding back from the Keys. He said it had me written all over it, and tied it onto my bike sometime during the day when I wasnt around.
And yes, it's staying on. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Here's a couple of pics, thought you all would get a kick out of it. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
BTW, here's what a "Guardian Bell" is:
"Legend has it that Evil Road Spirits have been latching themselves on to motorcycles for as long as there have been bikes on the road. These Evil Road Spirits are responsible for mechanical problems and bad luck along a journey.
Legend goes on to say that by attaching a small bell onto your bike, the Evil Road Spirits will become trapped inside the bell where the constant ringing drives them insane, making them lose their grip until they fall to the ground. (Ever wonder where potholes come from?)
Legend also has it that the mystery of the Guardian™ Bell carries twice as much power when it is purchased by a friend or loved one and given as a gift.
Show someone how much you care. Offer them defense against the Evil Road Spirits! Give a Guardian™ Bell and share the Legend of Good Luck it offers to a motorcycle and its rider!"
