Default Scared the crap out of myself today.

My old 2003 Ultra horn wasn't that big of a deal and I had eventually planned on getting a louder horn later. So yesterday I was riding my 2017 Road Glide Special and someone started to come into my lane so I hit the horn and holy crap it seems twice as loud as my old bike.

I think my ‘16 RGS is probably twice as loud as my ‘06 NT was as well. Major improvement.

The horn on my new RGS is much more than twice as loud as any Harley I have had to date.

How are we going to generate 1.21 gigawatts?

Glad the horn is loud though. Mine isn't to my liking. It's higher pitched than I'd like and not as loud.
