Not sure about the DB's, but it's a horn.

Now that's funny, Me Too, I'm so mad and trying to manuever I forget where the button is, by then it's too late.

i relocated mine under the oil bucket on the right side of the bike.this will only work on 6speed models though.there is even a threaded hole to mount it too requires making a bracket which is 3" long with a hole at each end
heres a pic of the threaded hole with a bolt i found to fit with horn wiring just before i mounted it

2nd pic is relocation complete..unless i point it out no one even notices it

3rd pic the reason i relocated the horn

thats not necessary, i'll look at mine tomorrow and see if theres room since i have a bomber muffler..



after installing the "head fillers", which btw make a big difference on looks, and putting on red SE wires i just wanted to clean up the left side a lil bit..
