Air Horn Question

[JPA]

So I am at a bit of a loss on where to install this new Seibel air horn I purchased.

It won't fit where the OEM piece of crap is because its too big...so I took all my fairings off for the first time this weekend on my 2005 K600 and found that when I had it dealer serviced they forgot to replace all the bolts and plastic fasteners, but that's another story.

The best place I could figure out to put it is mounted to the forks in front of the oil cooler. I was thinking about using the fender mounts as a place to secure a custom bracket. Has anyone else installed this horn elsewhere, successfully?

Thanks,
John

nope, I just used a 'freeway blaster' horn..bolts in place of the stock horn.

do you have a link or contact for a reseller?

I mounted mine under the seat in the space between the battery and the wheel well

I trimmed the ends of the plastic of the horn to fit in there on my 04

Buddy had the Yamaha dealer install one on his bike but the stock bracket broke off from the weight and vibration

Stebel perhaps?

Thanks for the input.

I hadn't thought about under the seat. Is it still quite loud? Did you "port" the cubby by drilling out a hole in the side? Aside from losing the storage, any negatives?

I will also try again to find a spot under the fairing by the lights, but I couldn't seem to find anyplace that didn't bind.

Thanks for the help guys. I really feel the stock horn is unsafe, at least I know they can see me now with the twin HIDs I just put in.

Regards,
John

I put several hole threw the cubby , I did trim some of the plastic from the open end of the horns to be able to keep it up right like they instruct

After carefully looking at the space between the fairing and frame by the left turn signal I think I can fit it in there like the other gentlemen.

Now my question turns to how to mount it on the inside of the fairing? Is there a clean way to do this or trial and error? I am thinking about sticking my digital camera down there with it in place and shooting a bunch of shots to get me in the ball park.

I have all the electric up and running and man that sucker is loud. I am starting to feel good safety wise, HID, horn, and pulsing rear red l.e.d.s when I am on the brakes.

Thank for any input,
John
