• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Newbie Spyder owner back with another pesky question (I have 2014 RT S SE6 Cognac, working on getting pix and data into a new profile and getting paid status - patience, I can be slow!)

My girlfriend has given me the gift of a spirit bell and insists I mount it on the new Spyder (I had a low side a few years ago on a previous bike). I certainly carry it right now and have advised that it is highly unlikely that I will have a low side on the Spyder but she will not hear of it. The question is where? She insists that (as the card says) it be below the bike near the pavement to scare the spirits away from grabbing my bike and taking it down (she's cute and lovable enough for me to tolerate such talk).

In all seriousness, I do love her and would love to show off a perfectly mounted bell to make her feel better. My question to you all is where? Is there a recommended location? Do any Spyder owners have such bells?

Thanks...
Walter

I have four (4) Angel Bells on my :spyder2: . Two of them are zip tied right below the front shocks, and the other two are under the floorboards. After removing the rubber mat, I drilled small holes in the metal part of the floorboards and attached eyebolts and nuts. The Angel Bells are attached to the eyebolts with small key rings.

The way I ride, I need lots of Angel Bells. I've managed to ride 37 years without even the slightest mishap. :bowdown:

Silly Question

I need to get my friends to give me a bell. I hope they read this forum and send me one for my :spyder2:
:yes:

The power of the Angel Bell (AKA Gremlin Bell) comes from the fact that a loved one or close friend personally gave it to you. Getting someone on the internet to send it to you is not the same. In due time someone in your circle will give one to you.

Pam:

A gifted Bell is a gifted bell, it may come from a loved one or a stranger that wishes you well. Please do not make up your own rules.

Protection is offered in the generosity of friends or in random acts of brotherhood along the road. The spirit of camaraderie and brotherhood between bikers is what the ride bell encompasses. Quoted by Pam, in another post??? Which way is it???

I'm not saying it isn't. You misread what I said.

I was just saying to him that eventually someone will come along and give him a bell. You're right, it doesn't matter whether its a friend or stranger. That was my mistake. I simply meant that going out onto the internet and asking for one is not the same as someone just giving you one.

Is this really worth arguing over?

Yes it is worth arguing over because, I made a gesture to another Spyder Ryder as a Friend and you trashed it. I have given Bells to several people that I knew and some I never met before, but have become friends with.

I realize that you are fairly new on here and don't know me, but my reason for being on this site is to gain information and make new friends, and your comment was rude.

Joe, I didn't intend to trash your gesture. I wasn't even aware of your gesture when I made the reply directly to the OP. I'm sorry you thought I was being rude to you, I didn't intend it that way.

Here in SpyderLovers; we're ALL family... :thumbup:
Even if that means a bit of squabbling once in a while; the gift of a Bell from one of us to another, is still genuine. nojoke
