Was it much louder and is the mouting bracket you made basically a L shaped to push it out a bit? thanks.

i didn't get a horn with the bike when I started it so I don't know how loud the 87 horn was to compare it to. It seems pretty loud for a stock horn though. I am using a pingel petcock and have no room issues, It looks like it would fit fine with a stock petcock as well. I am very happy with it as it doesn't look like everyones elses horn. Mounting was just a small L shaped bracket that I made but bent at about a 120 degree angle instead of 90 if i remember right. Hope this helps. sorry for the slow responce
