Guardian Bells
« on: May 05, 2011, 09:01:14 PM »
You shouldn't ride without one of these bells attached low and to the front of the bike. Proven to lessen or even eliminate motorcycle impacts with deer, elk, cars, even gremlins. Someone must give you one of these bells for it to have it's full power.
I have 50K trouble free riding with one of these attached. The deer I hit miraculously bounced off the front of the bike and it sustained minimal damage. Highly recommended.

And you wonder why I call you a Luddite?

To me, being called a Luddite – in the proper historical sense – means not blindly accepting technology simply because a company or a government is trying to foist it on us,

I'm surprised you don't ride a Harley.

I've got about 200k under my belt without a bell or deer whistles and have never hit a deer. 

I think the bell is what attracted that baby deer to your front wheel.

I might try a bell ... I've bounced twice on other bikes over the years due to deer hitting me. My solution was to stop riding in that area at dusk; Moraga, CA. But I might try a bell anyway.

I have a whistle made out of garlic under my fairing and I've never hit a vampire.
