Default Replaced My Mexican Horn With A Chinese Horn

I think I prefer the OEM HD Chinese horn. The original Mexican horn didn't last too long.

There may be a safety risk there. Hardly any drivers in the US understand Chinese so they may not understand your horn. Now a Meixican horn sounds in Spanish and there are many more people in the US who understand Spanish so you may have a better chance of your horn being understood. Capice.

When the Chinese makes one that plays Dixie like the Dukes of Hazzard, I'll be all over it. We can send space shuttles out of the atmosphere and build the internet, but we can't make a small horn play Dixie? What the hell?

Because it made me laugh. The original horn on my '07 RKC crapped out and when I pulled it off, I noticed that it was made in Mexico. When I opened up the new horn that I got from the local HD dealer, it was made in China.

For what it's worth, I still have my 1970 Honda 70 that I bought new. The horn still works fine after 40 years.
