Title: TRAIN HORNS
Post by blod on 10/09/25 at 21:35:29

I'm considering putting train horns ( the compressor ) in the trunk of my Savage, and the trumpets underneath. I have not heard of anyone else installing them on a sidecar rig and am wondering why not. I know they are childish, but I' never really grew up' and they are good fun so why not. Motorcycles in general are just big boys toys anyway

I think this one will fit in the trunk with room to spare.

It's far from the cheapest option available, but it has quality

Tip :Keep the tips of all the horns as far forward of your ears as possible.
They are LOUD and damaging to the ears. :o
Savage looks heavy but heavy is stable , looks like fun.

Agree 100% about protecting your ears from those. Even with a helmet.

The link doesn't work - post it using the "Hyperlink" that is at the top right of the screen when you are posting.....it look like an Earth Globe with a sheet of paper on the bottom right corner.

The horn circuit likely cannot handle the amperage of something using a compressor. Use the stock horn circuit to power a relay...let the relay do the heavy lifting of current!

Too late mate, I'm already Mutt & Jeff, with luck I will be able to hear them. :)

Check out the train horns on Amazon. They re all much the same.

It needs a wiring system all of it's own. I will keep the standard horn as well.

I was thinking of installing them facing out the back. If they are half as powerful as people tell me I might get some extra boost
