Air horns
Thinking about installing a set of air horns on my bike. Getting tired of being run off the road by teenage texters drifting across the center line. Revco has a set for $179 at J&P cycles. Anyone got air horns on their bike? Any tips or suggestions on a good one to buy?? Friend of mine that drives a PeterBuilt has an air horn that sounds just like a train horn. I mean LOUD! It was on the truck when he bought it. I wonder if something like that could be hooked to a bike?

I have the Rivco dual air horns on my 95 Fatboy - they are definitely LOUD! Puchased fo $155 from Eastern Performance April 2011 - they have saved my butt twice already in situations where minivan moms were paying attention to kids in the back instead of scooters on the side of them. The 2 year warranty is expired but never had a problem and they're just as loud today as 2 years ago. Oh... and they sell parts (compressor, horns ..) if ever needed for repair ....my $.02

Mini Beast II
I had the Mini Beast II installed on my Tri-Glide before delivery. I was very happy with the ability to alert every cager even with their windows up and all sorts of distractions. But, I decided to install the FCS fans to improve cooling, and the fans are not compatible with the MB II, so I put the somewhat lamer OEM horn back on.
If you are OK with the shape & look of the MB II I highly recommend it. I am now contemplating the various air horn options that are compatible with the FCS fans, or considering an alternate location for the MB II.

I installed it 6 months ago and don't dare "beep" to say goodbye to the wife at 5:30 a.m. anymore.
