Default Sick Horn
My horn sounds like it was stuffed with a sock. Anyone experience this and what is the problem or solution?

Thanks,

Mine does the samething, you think a bike that cost 20K would have a horn that works.

Mine's pretty decent - if the horn is touching the horn cover it will sound pretty lame. I'd say try to bend/nudge it away from the cover if you can.

Did you end up replacing it with a Harley horn. Haven't looked them up....but I'm guessing $250?

you can pull it apart, blow it out, and reassemble
