Yes, those are sold on various sites and that is the cheapest price you'll probably find.  I've also seen them at Walmart and Auto Zone.  Sometimes they're branded with another name but the manufacturer is Stebel Nautilus, like the one on your link.  You'll love it, loud as hell! waytogo

The other brand is Wolo Bad Boy. I have it on my F150, same exact thing as the Stebel. Make sure you wire in the relay, it'll die quickly and not sound as good before it dies without direct 12V source...

These are cool, but can they be mounted out of sight?  I currently have the OEM horn mounted to the fan mount on my radiator (behind the CF shroud).

Here is an image of where mine is mounted , doesn't stand out like dogs balls which I thought it would,

You can also get them in gloss painted red shinny metal even gold I think .

While that mounting location is aesthetically pleasing, the manufacturer recommends no more than 15 degrees from vertical for long life.

And no good for us oil cooler types. I had a stebel on sv hidden under the solo tail. I would love to put it on my monster, but am concerned about how it would look

Best I have right now... with the bike in pieces... but I'll try to put it back together this weekend for a better side shot of it located in the stock horn location. It's actually just above/in front of the oil cooler.

Fair enough but really they are quite cheap , so once installed and all the hard work is done if it claps out
I will just throw in a new one Smiley
