Finding Horn Button in Emergency
#91
Well heres an honest review based on his offer. Did not work for me. I have Avon grips and the wide grip doesn't work well for fit. Had it fit my grips, I think it still would not have worked for me. You give up some significant grip area for the mounting of the unit. I was under the impression it mounted further in at housing. It sits in the grip area and doesn't make for a usable surface. Sorry dude.

Where my hand lands on grip
Device mount area

This could be useless in situations already too late for 'making noise' by pulling in the clutch and revving the engine, or taking evasive action, to help because a cage is already too far into a rider's space. But I have found, over the last 50 years of year around riding, that if a cage driver notices me it helps prevent them from doing something I don't want them to do. A horn has prevented a need for 'evasive' action for me several times, could be many times but I couldn't know how many cagers became aware of my presence because of my horn and that has helped prevent them from 'invading' my space.
Even one time could be very significant. Think of a horn as another arrow in a quiver.
To me a horn is sort of like a siren, more then just noise because it alerts people to the fact that something 'needs' their attention and they may need to alter their planned course of action.

In this country we are very hesitant to use our horns in traffic, for some reason it is considered rude and or a representation of anger - akin to sticking your head out of the window and calling somebody a dumb ***.
I other countries using a horn is part of the drivers conversation with other vehicles, almost an extension of the turn signal. "hey, I am moving over" or "hey, I am in your blind spot" or "hey, I am going to overtake you"
Since we so rarely use our horns it isn't second nature when we really need them.

Of course this requires being aware of your surroundings and taking action before an 'Emergency' exists.

Louder horn?? More like louder pipes,, Really that much trouble finding horn button?? I say clutch and twist,, kick the car,, spit on windshield, and speed away.. No time for the horn!!
Horns I agree are for the chicks walking on the beach.. And then loud pipes win again!! If you ride with a lady on the back, have her carry some marbles, ding a few of those across a car and gets their attention also. Hope they stop to bitch about it.
2cd on "ride like your invisible" they always pull out in front of us!!!
