They are very loud, as a dim-whitted kid pulled in front of me and then hit his brakes to turn. He sure got out of his cool-slouch position when I hit the horn button. (2) Fiamm horns, (1) relay and some 10AWG wire cost me under $25. One of the best and cheapest upgrades I have done.
You got his attention, good! Under 25 dollars, that is a great mod!

Update: I ordered a horn for my wife's bike, it arrived yesterday, but it doesn't work. Long story short, she now has my Howard's horns, and I just ordered another set.

I have those on both of my bikes. 8 years total between the 2. Never a problem.

I have no problems at all with musicnbikes spending his money. But only if he supplies pix when complete.
