G'day,

Just wondering if any one has some ideas for a mod to the crapy little horn on my S4RS. The standard one brings down the bike......it has to go!

I would like something that is LOUD and looks trick.

Cheers  [beer]

Stebel i think is the name of the one's people are using.

If you want something between stock and the Stebel

something else in between:



These are by Fiamm, sold thru Pep boys. Not so trick. But, there will be blood, in the ears of cagers!  [laugh]

Perhaps you meant "the stebels make my eyes sore?"  The are ugly and must be hidden on a Duc.  They are right at home on a touring bike though.   ;D

I have a Fiamm blaster on my Bandit.  It's loud enough.  I haven't found using a horn as a weapon to be very effective.

Quite loud and immediate blast, need no relay - direct bolt on the stock position and wiring.

Louder horn?  Who knew.  I usually use my middle finger as the primary form of communication between myself and the 4 wheeled world.  I save my horn for when I have my winter gloves on and I am trying to turn off the turn signal.

I love my Stebel  [thumbsup]
Makes people on the sidewalk jump. 

PS. the directions seem complicated, but its actually stupid easy to install. Plug in, bolt on, done.

What about making something like this happen?

I saw a guy a few years ago who had a set of 2 trumpets pointing forward from just in front of his rear axle.  I couldn't talk to him so I never got the scoop.

cheaper alternative to the Stebel:

this is wolo's version of the Stebel at 118 decibels...I just ordered it for my Duc. if it's not loud enough, I can always throw it on my road rager GF's car (without telling her [evil] )

This is something thats interested me for a while. Post up if it's a good product. I like the price range and I'm tired of people cutting me off and acting like they didn't see me.

I had the wolo on my old F150. Just as loud as the Stebel, but cheaper...
