No Kris : when it comes to being see --- ya can't over think it !  Cheesy

I've got one of the largest number ratings ones I could find on ebay "motorcycle horns" , and have no problems with needing a relay , got one on both bikes and still no problems.   Smiley

I know the folks in cages can hear it because when I give the roadrunner beep-beep just before passing - they look around till they find me -- then floorboard it as if to say "YOU AIN'T PASSING ME !"  Grin

ESPECIALLY those people in Dodge vehicles ...  Grin Grin

On my Ninja 500 I simply replaced the pathetic factory horn with a Fiamm 'freeway blaster' from AutoZone, no relays, no huhu
every time I hit it after that, my riding buddy jumped and said "DAYUM!" ...


this one ???

yes, though I don't recall if I used the low or high tone
either works well I'd bet

That's very annoying. Do we get points or tax breaks for passing?  Grin

Guys,

"It would be good of you to post some pics of the horn mounted on the Savage/S40."

-- Kenny G

The link to my post on the first page has some pics (actually, you even replied to the thread  Grin).  It's the FIAMM El Grande kit which includes both the high and low tone horns.  Having both gives the best sound.  20 bux on Amazon clicky link.  Someone else on the forum installed the 10 dollar jobbys from Harbor Breighk and seemed to like 'em.

Tocsik,

Sorry, I suffer from old age memory loss.....LOL

I remembered the pic as soon as I saw it.
The horns look really nice on your bike.

Mine just makes a sad weak honk, even when it's not a dying battery.
