It looks cool as all get out but does it serve a function? Aerodynamics? Direct air up towards the engine for cooling? Hide blue LED lights for night-light shows? Jack

Re: CHIN SCOOP / Horn suggestions Reply #4 - 04/01/12 at 21:02:00 What kinda tools do you have for cutting & shaping? Got a program to help with layout? If you just started in & used a torch & tape measure & hammers & welder & grinder, if you did that 20 hours you did allrite, It looks good. It works a little like a mud flap, for bikes with no fender,

Jack

Functioning scoops or belly pans served to direct air flow over cooling surfaces and clean up the slipstream of of a bike. This one is more form than function, what can I say I love to fabricate and to the best of my knowledge there is nothing like this for a savage so it was a good challenge.

I got a dual horn wiring kit ( relays, connectors, etc.) from Eastern Beaver that I use on my Kawasaki, but I don't see it on their site anymore. If you're not an electricity moron like me, you can wire up two horns yourself. I used snail-shaped car horns and put one in the tail and one under the engine. They're very loud and get more attention than the typical beep-beep motorcycle horn.

The snail horn is exactly what I have, I found some relay kits for about 40 bucks. Did you use the stock horn button?
