    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

After reading a few things in the forum and a relatively close call the other day, i want to get a much louder horn. Before i order anything-whats a good upgraded horn to get?
Thanks!
 
There are several threads dealing with this; the 'search' function here should bring them up.;) Here is a recent one...

Those Fiamm horns are a good upgrade, and easy to install, but for serious intimidation, check out the Stebel Nautilus horn which is very loud, but a little more creativity is required to install, given the shape. I have one, but haven't yet installed it....rest assured, it is loud.:eek:
Comes with the required relay too.

I bought a set of Fiamm El Grande horns, which are the high/low Freeway Blasters in a single pack. They are quite loud and have the relay included. I then stupidly succumbed to me-tooism and purchased a Stebel Nautilus (aka Wolo Bad Boy from JC Whitney) and found it nearly impossible to mount. I separated the compressor and horn section, and zip-tied the compressor in the space where the ignitor used to sit on my 83 1100E. I then ran a 3/8" vinyl tube up to the horn section which I temporarily clamped over one of the turnsignal stalks. It works fine, but I still can't find a decent location for the horn. The single bolt mount also does not fill me with confidence. I am going to go back to the Fiamms, which were certainly loud enough. I might toss the Wolo, or install it in my car, where I'm sure it will seize up with lack of use. If I could find a set of Stebel Magnum Blasters for a decent price, I'd go that route.

Hella Supertones are said to be louder, but they are pretty big to mount on a bike.
