Some years back I tried a Howard s air horn on mine and I spent more time trying to keep it working then I did riding. Bracket broke twice beating up my rear cylinder then it might or might not work. So I took it off and put HDs dual horn set up on mine.

I saw a U tube video with a car set up with train horn. The people really scattered when it went off.

There are a lot of air horns on the market. I wanted something compact. I didn't want the trumpets.
Their sounds are wide varying. I didn't want something that sounded like a french cop or a 66 volkswagon on steroids. I finally found a link where I could hear different horns.
I went with the Harley.
It will scare the bejesus out of anything around you. Sounds like a semi coming at you. Loud doesn't always get it. People know what a semi horn sounds like.

Sounds (no pun intended) like the HD one will do the job!

Had it installed in Daytona by my buddies Bob & Ken at Wyked Illusions.
If you are at the OUTER BANKS bike week this week, they are there at Outer Banks HD. Tell them JD from Mass sent you and said to give you a discount! They will probably tell you to tell JD to "go fugg himself" but give you a discount anyways! And tell Ken I said to make sure BOTH sides of your bike are detailed while the horn is being installed! lol

Chalk up another Stebel Nautilus user.
I doesn't look half bad and it's loud as hell!
Just for fun I tested it with a sound pressure meter (just to see if the claims are true). I measured 132.5 db with the guage sitting on the footboard.
