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 , then they wont fall out and cause all those pot holes when they explode
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. Ghost rider now sits at the front with old Triumph mid sump
