Waddaya have? If anything? I have the obligatory St Christopher medalion on my key-fob but have also taken to wearing my Knights Cross every time I get on the bike, which before was reserved for special occasions.

This may be a symptom of eccentricty or madness, not sure yet.

Feel free to add pics of your favourite spell-warding token.

It's just an excuse to wear a swastika and offend old biddies.

I've put SS runes & rank on my jacket's collar too. Shifty

You're so badass.
I expect there's a lot of old biddies to offend down your neck of the woods Laughing

I have an old bloodstained teatowel knotted to my grabrail that I can't go anywhere without, but only because I want to wipe the seat down to save getting a wetter arse than necessary.

One day I will buy a bike WITHOUT a ripped/repaired seat Mad

That was a blood nose (my OWN blood nose) ... before anybody suspects me of homicide, based upon Nexus Icon's assumption that I might be sociopathic Laughing

My good luck charm for when I inevitably break down in the middle of nowhere.

I generally carry some ones with smaller numbers on for the commoners.

Not a good luck charm, but I've had a "Skeletor" keying, since it fell out of cereal box, some time last century, currently houses my DRZ keys! Laughing

Is that to deflect stray bullets? If so, you might be in for a surprise as most crystals are a tad on the fragile side when it comes to sudden sharp impacts... Laughing

So far the £50 note is the most sensible of charms although a combination of RAC card and a credit card with a decent limit (which is my own personal protection) would probably top that. Thumbs Up

Mine is a pewter Chinese character for "horse" ( my Chinese birth year) and it lives permanently on a double leather thong round my neck.

I always wear my biker id tags. Name, date of birth, contact number, NHS number and allergies. All on dog tags. Not so much a lucky charm really, but I'd feel under-dressed without them.
Worked beautifully so far!
