Thanks. I never noticed that. I fixed my post.

I let both of my brothers ride my bike, and both of them said that they tried the horn (or hit it by mistake) and it scared the **** out of them! My younger brother was expecting the road runner 'beep! beep!' type of sound...

The cow bell horn is louder than some car horns.

Is there an easily detachable one that you can strap on for when you know you're going on a long summer ride?

Extremely sorry to have taken so long to get back to you. The oil cooler detaches easy just 2 screws, but the hose will still be their. You could just put the hose in a u shape, but most people just leave them on.

All air cooled engines are benefited by having an oil cooler. They will run stronger and last longer. The real question is why wouldn't you put one on?

HD coolers have a 185 degree thermostat. That is needed for engine warm up and winter riding. I have put coolers on my Dyna's, Softails and Sportsters. I simply will not run a air cooled HD without one.

Are they hard to install? I've been thinking about getting one being down in AZ and the hot summer's and 300+ days of riding we get down here every year.

These Oil Coolers are easy to install, and come with step-by-step instructions. 30-60 minutes.
