    Can anyone recommend a compact aftermarket horn that's very loud but will fit in a small space?

    Just had a look on eBay at Stebel Horn and there's loads of them, but most don't even give a size and how do you know what 109db sounds like? and do i need low or high note?
    Not got much room on the Trident chop so air horns are not going to fit.

    How come I fitted one like that to my t100 2010 and it damaged the front guard.
    Regards

    Note: On those "Stebel" horns..."There are a lot of cheaper Knock-Offs on ebay (calling them "Stebel Horns"...not that they are not any good...but they are not GENUINE Stebels!" Check w/the seller...ask them1st before you buy (if you want a genuine one).

    I had this on a car I owned as it had 'high' horn fitted, so I added a 'low' tone one too and the cobination of the two makes a proper good noise. Been thinking about doing this on my speedmaster.

    What bike do you have? On my ST 1050 I have fitted a pair of air horns, put the compressor inside the fairing out of sight and put the trumpets under the headlight. On my Bandit I have a generic low tone horn snail horn from a motor factors which gives off a better deeper tone than the normal car horn. Had imitation nautilus horns before, a waste of time.

    This one mate...which is why it has to be smallish and not stick out like a sore thumb.;)
