I think it gets plenty of airflow and haven't noticed any issues so far... Not sure which bag it is except that it's a harley branded leather one. It came on the Nightster I bought years ago and I kept it when I traded in for the BO.

Same doubt about the voltage regulator.

I think one of these on the left would look and sound terrific. Darned if I can figure out how to get it mounted there on a BO. Anyone seen / done it ?

Well, I prefer stock BO horn, I had "cowbell" horn on my previous bike and didn't like it so much.

If you need one of those you should think about what might be wrong with your exhaust

IMHO a classy exhaust is loud enough to deliver the potato, potato with distinction but quiet enough to make haters work for it . "A ballet of the senses", if you will. Air horns are for show and crow .

She just likes the way it looks. I don't think I have ever heard her use it.
It does look much better on her bike imho.
