Default Need a new horn

Hey, y'all...

I wanna put a different horn on my heritage when I get it. I can't stand the road runner "meep meep" sound from the stock horns. I've listened to sound bites of different horns on youtube, but don't like them either (except the diesel train horn.... that was pretty cool).

Any ideas? Is there a company that has a website with different horn audio files?

Mini beasts are great! But they are just a Stebel air horn in a fancy case. If you don't want to spend that much money, but do want the sound just buy a stebel air horn. They are easy to install, just be sure to use the relay.

Put one on the old bike and now I have one on the new bike...
Worth every cent when you want to noticed!
