Well she was cute. But I prolly have granddaughters older than her. (Not that that would stop me from flirting!) But I didn't want to scare her either. It was funny though, she leaned out the window to look back at me and I did the slow motion point to the fuel door so she would see me close it for her. Hey, nice guys ride Harley's! I even wave and smile at the kids looking at me at stop lights. Plus I kinda look like Santa....

I cover my horn quite often in anticipation of needing it with certain situations.
This also helps build muscle memory for when I dont anticipate it...
But the little bump dot is a nice idea out of the box. Thx.
be safe, be well

Have an old '93 FXDL with the horn in different spot than my '04 FLSTCI. Can't remember which one is where. So it's sometimes the horn, sometimes the left signal, and sometimes me yelling and the middle finger. And sometimes I pull up alongside the offender at a stop and ask "Do you see me now?!"

Yeah that too....but the high beams always on on my bikes. Usually I just start smashing all the buttons. LOL!

I remember the first time I had to use the horn I ended up mashing all the buttons turning on the high beams and signal lol

OP is not alone.
I too find honking the horn futile.
Better to concentrate on braking, swerving and acceleration instead of beeping a horn.
FWIW...many Harley have custom exhausts.... just rev the motor to make your presence known.
