I need a horn that goes "*******!" at about 160 decibels.

Maybe your horn fluid is low. Make sure to only use HD Horn Fluid or it will void the warranty.

If I remember correctly the horn fluid reservoir is right next to the spot where you you put the turn signal fluid, right?

I prefer the S.E. horn fluid. The little eagle on the bottle gives the horn extra h.p.

Yeah that's why they named it "Screamin' Eagle.".

It is, but the horns on this bike were known for Knuter valve failures.

I still want to replace my horn with a paint ball gun. Push the horn button let a few go.

Does your horn have any other redeeming qualities?

I know I've put up with women over the years that were essentially non functional just because they looked nice.
