That's what they'll be yelling when I lay on the horn now! My oem horn had decided not to work every time and I read a post on the XB board about this Stebel Nautilus Air Horn. Claimed loudest in the world, 139 decibels, dual tone...blah blah blah. WOW. To quote the old lady from B & B Do America; you'll have to speak up sonny, I got this ringin' in ma ears. Man this joker is loud, very loud. Install was a piece of cake but the wires supplied were too short unless you mount it right on top of the battery. I did away with the stocker and hopefully that will allow more airflow to the rear cylinder. I took pics that I will upload later to show where everything is located. Just wanted to post up and rave.

Shipped to my front door for just shy of $50. I used it twice on my long weekend to TN. and my buddy approx. three car lengths behind on his loud Harley said he heard it plenty loud. This horn will not disappoint. | ||

Sorry guys, once the thread went to the bottom it was kinda outta sight, outta mind. I did take pics with the digital camera so I'll download them and resize them and put them up but here's the skinny on the mount job. I completely took out the stocker. I mounted the relay on an unused screw under the seat on the crossbar of the aluminum subframe but any mounting location out of the weather will do. The wires with the kit are too short unless you mount it directly on top of the battery. I put blade terminals on the ends of two wires and ran those into the stock horn connections (I hate to cut up factory just in case I want to go back some day, it is limited edition you know) and ran it back to the relay. I then removed the flyscreen and mounted the horn with zip ties to the cluster of wires behind the speedo. For safety's sake I also ran a zip tie through the mounting hole at the top of the horn. Run your battery wire from the relay to the horn and ground it and you'll be good to go. There are detailed wiring instructions with the wiring kit and relay and all the terminals needed, unless you want two extra blade terminals for the stock horn wiring. T9r that's a pretty good price if it comes with the wiring kit and relay but checking the link I don't think it does. Although it's too short for where I mounted it I kept all the wires from previous automatic car starters and used that for some extra length. |
