Default horn mount
I took the cheap a## horn off my 05 sportster and have tried 2 differant Wolo bad boy air horns. The first I mounted under the frame where it filled up with water in a rain storm.The second I went higher than where the stock was mounted and hit something and it broke off.Does anyone have any suggestions where to mount that will clear and not fill up with water . Thanks in advance

How about mounting the horn between the front frame rails above the oil cooler?

Between the jugs?? IDK. You never mentioned if your scoot was an 883 or 1200. It makes a difference, the horns are located differently from an 883 to a 1200.
