You see, I heard some folks talking ’bout these things called gremlin bells for motorcycles. I ain’t never seen one myself, but they say it’s a thing. They say these little bells, they keep the bad luck away from you when you’re ridin’ one of them loud, two-wheeled things. Some folks call them guardian bells, some call ’em spirit bells. It’s all the same thing, I reckon.

Now, I don’t know much about motorcycles. But I heard these bells, they’re like a good luck charm, kinda. They say there’s little gremlins out there on the road, just waitin’ to mess up your ride. Nasty little things, they are. Make your motorcycle break down, or make you fall off, or somethin’ worse.
So these here gremlin bells, they scare them little buggers away. The sound of the bell, it’s like poison to them gremlins, I guess. They can’t stand it, so they stay away from your motorcycle. Makes sense, I suppose. Ain’t nobody likes a noise they can’t stand. And gremlins are no exception, they say.
Folks hang these bells low on their motorcycles, close to the ground, you see. That way, the gremlins, they hear it real good, and they don’t even think about climbin’ up on that motorcycle. Some says it’s close to the road spirits, some says it’s just closer to where the gremlins might be hiding. Anyhow, it’s better to keep the motorcycle safe, right?
Now, if you’re thinkin’ of gettin’ one of these motorcycle bells for yourself, that’s just fine. They say it still works, even if you buy it for yourself. But, get this, if someone gives you one as a gift, the magic is even stronger! Double the power, they say. I ain’t no bell expert, but it’s good to have extra protection, right?
- These bells, they ain’t big. Just about an inch or so long, made of some kind of metal.
- They say the best ones are made of pewter, but I don’t know what that is, really.
- You hang ’em on your motorcycle, somewhere low down.
- The sound of the bell keeps the bad luck away, or so they say.
- It’s better if someone gives you one as a gift.
I heard some folks sayin’ that these bells are like them little charms people used to hang on their horses, back in the day. Same idea, I reckon. Keep the bad spirits away, whether you’re on a horse or a motorcycle. Keeps you safe from them road gremlins, too.
Now, I ain’t no expert on these gremlin bells, but I heard enough to know they’re supposed to be a good thing. If you’re ridin’ one of them motorcycles, maybe you should think about gettin’ one. Can’t hurt, right? And who knows, maybe it’ll keep you safe from them pesky gremlins. These little spirits won’t know what hit them when they hear that bell ringin’.
Some folks, they get real serious about these bells. They say you gotta hang ’em just right, and you gotta clean ’em every now and then. I don’t know about all that. Seems like a lot of fuss to me. But hey, if it keeps you safe, maybe it’s worth it. Better safe than sorry, my mama used to say, and she was right about most things, especially when it comes to keepin’ the bad luck away. Better to have a gremlin bell for your motorcycle, she’d say.
I remember one time, my neighbor, he had a motorcycle. Big, loud thing, it was. He never had one of these bells, and you know what? He had nothin’ but trouble with that thing. Always breakin’ down, always somethin’ wrong. Maybe if he’d had one of these motorcycle bells, he’d have had better luck. Who knows? It’s somethin’ to think about, ain’t it?
So, if you’re out there ridin’ your motorcycle, and you ain’t got one of these bells, maybe you should think about gettin’ one. Like I said, can’t hurt. And it might just keep you safe from them road gremlins. And that’s a good thing, right? Keep those wheels turnin’ and the wind in your hair, and let that little bell do its job. You just keep on ridin’, and don’t you worry ’bout a thing. The bell will take care of them gremlins, they say. You’ll be just fine.
I seen a lot of things in my life, but I ain’t never seen a gremlin. But that don’t mean they ain’t real. Best to be prepared, I always say. And if that means hangin’ a little bell on your motorcycle, then so be it. It’s a small price to pay for a little peace of mind, wouldn’t you say? These gremlin bells for motorcycles are more than just a decoration. They’re a tradition, they say. And traditions are important, even if you don’t always understand them. That’s just my opinion.
