Once when having my annual state safety inspection,when they tested the horn,I told them I fixed it just for them.Everyone in the shop laughed.

I'd like to find a mod that would connect my horn to my middle finger because it seems I always know where it's at.

Damn horn button on my car is in the middle of the steering wheel, I have to move my entire hand to honk. On the bike I just hit the top outer most button. I do use the blinkers a lot, so I appreciate them being where my thumbs rests. But I don't use the horn unless it is an emergency for the same reason I did not use the ringy dingy on my first bicycle, I want people to see me, not laugh at me. The Harley horn button location is fine for me, but the weak *** horn is a joke and a half.

I find for some odd reason that I can't just give a real short toot of the horn, like I can with a tap on the cars horn. Not sure if its size, location or spring pressure of the button that throws off my ability to do a quick finger tap. Therefore, I don't attempt to use it

Best solution ever!

Now would that be a "Bluetooth Butt Plug" Krustee?

Like Krustee said

I think there should be a horn switch in the seat - when your butt starts to clinch up real fast the horn should go off!
