Have had them for years, always bought for me,save for one(explanation to follow), the wife has furnished them for the last few bikes as I always leave them with the bike whether trading in or selling it..... Now, do I believe in them? Well I'll believe in anything till it bites me in the arse. Case history.... Three motorcycle accidents in my past, first one I was very young AND very drunk BUT I had a bell, bought by ME. Second accident, no bell, but it wasn't my bike. Third one and the worse, bike DID have a bell but it wasn't on it at the time. I had removed it when the bike was having some major work done on it and I hadn't put it back on yet. You decide.... is that the theme from the Twilight Zone I hear or is the ringing in my ears getting worse?
Of course, now it is all a mute point as you see, if you talk about it you jinx it.....
?(think of that as ONE BIG question mark)
Is there ANY logic in what you've just said?
Okay! Alright! I'll go along with ya here.....
(Now imagine our friend glazer here played by a young William Shatner[even though glazer ain't a Canadian] and in the opening scene he's looking at what seems to be some kind of a talisman affixed to a motorcycle.
A man talking through his teeth and holding a cigarette appears as somewhat of a ghostly figure just off center of the picture and begins to talk)
"Submitted for your approval. Chicago resident and Triumph enthusiast, a man know to all as "glazer", is about to attempt a jump of logic. But what this biker doesn't realize, is that HIS jump's landing will be detoured right into (yep...you guessed it)...The Twilight Zone!"

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
