Do you need to do some mods or does it bolt right up?

bolts right up and plugs right in... Not sure about the horn cover yet though but I doubt it will take much

what type of load does it draw? I have read that if it draws more than the stock one it could fry the harness connectors. i dont know if it is true but i guess even small repettive use could do damage over time? kind of like 1 drink a day os good 4 ya, but 2 will kill ya. then again I could be reading B.S.

Sounds like the horn on most softails.. Don't know about the amp draw but I seriously doubt this thing will cause an issue..

Do you have a pic of the horn cover you have ordered. Would like to get a better idea of what you are planning.

Default NAPA Horn BK7301056

According to description the NAPA horn draws 5 A. What's the one on our Rocker's draw? Would also like ot see a picture when you install the horn cover.

I've got the horn mounted in the same place as the stock was... The cover I'm getting is the standard HD "bell" cover.. If I don't like it being low on the frame then I'll just lop off the stock bracket, extend the wires and move it up the cross brace for the bracket.. I've got a compressor and air tools.. LOL
