I just received a Motohorn air horn for my 2017 Softail Slim and Have no idea how or where to mount it. The instructions basically say to mount it where you want to, but don't instruct how or even how to mount the compressor. Has anyone installed one of these? I've seen pictures and rave reviews, but still no instructions. Even YouTube doesn't seem to have any answers. Thanks for any advice anyone can share with me.

Does anyone have one of these Moto Horns? What are your thoughts on it? Good purchase/installation, or regrets?
motohorn.com ads have been appearing in my social media feeds (click on it once and it keeps coming back).
The truth is, I very much like the idea of having a really loud horn, but I don't want a piece of plastic that is going to look like garbage and I don't want an installation night mare.
Our kit also includes full customer support for your installation.
Simply send us an email or message us on social media for installation related help.
Just received mine today. Not sure where I am going to be able to mount it and the compressor. I looked at the pictures on their gallery but not sure how those people were able to mount it. At first glance it doesn't look like there is enough room.
Some of the pictures on the internet on the mounting of the air horn show a flat metal stock that the horn bolts to and then bolted to the existing stud of the existing horn. Others show vertical placement off the crash bars.

Reason: spelled word wrong
I installed mine where the existing horn was & used the existing horn cover to hide the compressor. I went to home depot and picked up a 2 inch piece of flat plate, drilled 3 holes for the horn and one in the center to mount to the existing horn mount. It works like a charm. Love it. I had an issue with the compressor and moto horn stood by their product and sent a new one. By the way this was installed on a 2005 heritage softail.
