You one of those that still has that little squeaky sounding thing they call a horn? Would you like to really put some authoritative sound on your beast? I bought a set of Stebel TM80/2 Magnum twin horns that scream at a whopping 139db. and have a really nice twin tone. They sound like horns on a big car like Lincoln, Caddy etc. DO NOT blow them in your garage. They come in chrome and black and I chose the black pair.
There are many places one could mount these but right out in the open is where I like mine and since the speedo is so lonely up there I placed them next to it. This is just my version and it works great for me. Had a couple of those spark grounders that snap onto a spark plug on a lawn mower and ground one side off so the other side could rest where the bolt will hold it. These brackets are hard and won't take a lot of bending but have what the horns need, vibration/flex. When both horns were mounted, they had some shake to them (left and right) while on a rougher road or over bumps. Solved that problem with a piece of rubber hose that is cut just to the right length and rests on the tach. There should be some give in that direction but not so much that the horns don't look solid while riding. Did this after almost getting run over by a soccer mom with kids in the SUV and the phone stuck in her ear. Guarantied to be heard within several blocks and they have a good sound to boot.
