Default 2008 SUPERGLIDE horn bit the bullet.

Got 21k miles on this bike now and finally have my first problem of any kind on it,The horn will only make a rough audible sound for one second then it just sort of flutters and buzzes etc.Took it off and blew it out with air, got a few grains of sand etc to come out of the open part etc, hooked the wires back up with the same problem.....My question is are there aftermarket auto type horns that will mount up as the stock one ? Any suggestions for a horn replacement ? Thanks.

A temporary suggestion is to replace horn with middle finger

Direct replacement for stock horn is FIAMM Freeway Blaster Low Tone
Part # F72112. Available at most auto parts stores.

Replaced mine several years ago after removing and cleaning the stock plastic horn several times. The FIAMM has worked fine and is metal.

A cheap fix at about $15-$20.

I've gotten other bike horns to work by taking them apart and cleaning with WD40.
