Default Another horn replace question.

Any tips on a direct replacement horn to kill the embarrassing Road Runner ‘beep-beep’ sound of the stock horn?
My concern is having enough room to mount a new horn now that I have the mustache engine guard installed.

The Denali SoundBomb Mini looks good, but wondering if anyone has had trouble going that route with the engine guard?

I am a big believer in big mirrors, bright lights, and loud horns. Gotta see, be seen, and be heard

I installed a Custom Dynamics mini-beast several years back and couldn't be happier.

Shouldn't be a concern with engine guards as the size is very comparable to stock.

My defence is that it’s age related.
Forum’s & their protocols are like learning a foreign language to me…..and I’m a slow learner.

If my horn fits with an engine guard I am pretty sure you won't have a problem with any horn you choose

The stock horn on 2017+ bikes will wake the freakin dead. Zero motivation for me to spend money on a replacement horn.
