    Everyone knows the legend around these, where these come from and why they are essential to all of us.

    I know they should be as low to the road as possible (to catch the little bleeders before they do any damage).

    Like these Iron.
    I noticed my Triumph bell, the brother gifted me, had lost its ringer, so getting a second one.

    Nice one, best as a gift - apparently twice as much power than a self bought one. You need the ringer otherwise the Gremlins don't get caught :dizzy:, then they wont fall out and cause all those pot holes when they explode :bomb:

    If you own a pre 80s Triumph or have any electrics by Joe Lucas you learn to live with gremlins....in fact you have an intimate relationship with the little fuckers.;)

    Here's one of Mr Lucas' little gremlins. What a nasty little bastard this one is, basic, simple but horrible that goes un-noticed until too late by a lot of owners. Kill these as soon as you see them.

    Main reason I left my battered Triumph one (as per Stollys pic) on is my brother and I gift them for every bike we have.:p Ghost rider now sits at the front with old Triumph mid sump :cool:
