Horn Advice?

I put a horn on from ebay (something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/2Pc-12-VOLT-...ca3cd2&vxp=mtr, but only one of course). I put it below the tranny.
I did it only to be as legal as possible if I get pulled (required in my state). I use it to honk at girls, and that is about it - not as a way to make cages 'aware' of me.

I have a Bad Boy Wolo.... good loud sound for the price/size.
That's what you're going to run into.... how big do you want it? The bigger it is, the louder it is (in general).

You hit the horn.
And 9 times out of 10 the most common accidents, someone changing lanes in to you or pulling out in front of you, are avoided. Revving your "loud pipes" doesn't and never will get the other drivers attention like the sound of a horn. Revving the engine doesn't register in the mind of drivers as a danger or warning signal. A horn, no mater what sound puts out, if it is a legal device, meaning a certain db level that it must put out, is the better choice EVERY time.
But what do I know, I've just been riding for 35 years and have only avoided probably 100 accidents over that time because of the other driver hearing the HORN even though I was right beside them with loud pipes that just didn't register as a warning to them.
So take your horn off, break the law in most states in the process, look "cool"...and end up dead because you had no way to make the other driver aware in a way that EVERY driver is trained to recognize instantly. Oh, and know that those of us who are REAL old school are laughing at your stupidly.
