Louder horn

Has anyone changed the horn for a louder one? I am looking at a Stebel but it looks like there might not be room?
thx, john

I wound up going with the Stebel TM 80 Magnum in place of the stock unit.

Plug and play, don't worry about the relay.

No problemo.



With the horn mounted like this, you can still turn forks lock to lock without interference. Gently drill small hole in the housing at the lowest point to allow for water to drain. If you fabricate a mounting strap about 3/16" longer than the bracket that comes with the stebel TM-80 Magnum horn, it will tuck up into the frame nicely. I chose the low tone, as it sounds more like a big car/truck than the high tone. It gets tested almost daily, and it does save me every time.

I love my loud horn, the stocker just isn't safe. I can't believe that you can use the stock horn wires with those 22ga wires or what ever they are.
