Good point! I am more inclined to pull the clutch and rev the engine to get someone's attention myself some times.....

I replaced the horn on my Dyna after it went south with a Stebel Magnum 139 dB. Sold to be used in cages it came 2 in a package and at 139 dB it is supposed to be the loudest magnetic horn. I think it was $20 for the two of them. That was 9 years ago and its still going strong in the bike I sold to a friend.

Nothing fancy but it works very well.

Wolo

They both come out of the same factory in Italy with minor cosmetic differences. Their db ratings are 114 & 139 because one is measured at 4 inches & the other at 4 feet. They both need relays. This has been discussed on this forum many times in the last 3 years. Believe it.
