ORIGINAL: hdfxcw

Don't know if this will work on the Rocker:

NAPA carries a replacement horn 730-1056 rated at 420 Hz and 132 db made for them by FIAMM. It appears to be the "Freeway Blaster". About $13 - $15 at your local NAPA store.

It fits underneath the HD factory cowbell and hooks up with existing wiring.


&nbsp\\;
Let me know how it turns out. I went riding with a friend who owns a Softail Classic. When I hit the horn to tell him to turn, I thought a little VW Bug or Mini Cooper was trying to get my attention. I was so embarassed to know that was MY horn!!

The Rocker horn is the single biggest thing I dislike about my bike!&nbsp\\; I hope someone does come up with an easy solution for swaping it out for a beefier sounding horn.&nbsp\\; I would gladly sign up for one!

A lady pulls out in front of me the other day.... Instead of giving her my roadrunner beep from my rocker I decided to just give her a blinker instead.... I figured that was more intimidating!!! &nbsp\\;

I also picked up a 730-1056 to see if I like the lower tone better. I will put the one I like best on the Rocker and the other one on the other bike.
