Don't know the year of your bike, but on many horns there is a hidden screw on the back side.
The screw is hidden under some rubber compound. This screw is used to calibrate the decibels at the factory.
If you remove the rubber you can then screw the screw in and crank up the sound "decibels". The horn will
actually get alot louder. This may help you out. It may also save you alot of money thinking you need an aftermarket horn.
