Default Air Horns...

http://www.bjspecialties.com/harleyt...l#ultraclassic

Just installed a set of air horns from BJ. These puppies are LOUD!! Couldn't be happier! The install was a snap - no problems. My concerns are the idiots in the parking lots and side streets. No questions I'll get their attention! The cost is a little more than I wanted to pay but with a 2 year warranty I feel the investment is well worth the price. If I can get some moron on their cell phone or drinking coffee and make them drop or spill whatever is in their hand I'll be one happy camper....

Stay safe out there...

Put the HD on mine and it is wonderful.... now all I need is a paintball gun mounted incognito!!!! Image a yoyo turns in front of you and you blast him with about 10 rounds and calmly keep moving.... I'm sure it's illegal, but the fun... oh man.

Are you following this part of the instructions from the BJ Specialties website? LOL!


HORNS ARE MADE TO BE BLOWN. BLOW THEM EACH
TIME YOU GET ON YOUR BIKE. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL
RESULT IN THE TRUMPETS STICKING.

Those look like nice horns. Using similar horns I think I almost gave a little lady a heart attack when she pulled out in front of me. This was when riding my dad's classic with air horns a few years back.

Those horns were a different brand, and the bracket had a squared off edge on one corner which loved to crack through due to the motor's vibration, dropping the horns at the most inopportune time, like when hauling a** down the highway. I think we broke through 3 brackets before giving up on them and installing a different horn.
