I just cut mine off and put it in the fairing, then i removed the motor mount and shaved it down to clean up that side. The trick was to find a good spot in the fairing so that it would still work well. I found that when i bolted it tight, it would not vibrate well enough to create any sound, had to end up zip tying it to the wire harness in ordere for it to shake enough, still can't figure that one out?

In the lookout for a horn cover that has a girl with the grass skirt that will shake around when I'm at the stop light, My old man had one on his dash when I was a kid. Ma hated it. LOL

If you really want one maybe we can work something out when I get time to do it.

I felt the same way but I wanted to keep the basic shape.The cover is all Harley.So I made some covers of my own. The web is on my Dyna and the skull is on my Ironhead.I'm not sure what I want to do for the bagger yet and the wife wants a pixie for her bike.One good thing about working in a Aluminum foundry for over 20 years.What do you think? Mike

Dude, those are awesome. You could have a bit of a side business there, IMO. Hell, I am not even in to the whole skull thing, and I would buy one of those from you. That is the nicest skull horn cover I have seen. Now, if you could only figure out one that has a pair of dice on it, I would be set.

I bought a horn cover that looks a little different. It is a HD one that has a bar and shield on it, with two stickers that mimic the lines on the cylinders. Unfortunately I do not have a pic on this computer. One of those sticker came off, so I removed the other one. Now there are two indented boxes at the bottom of the horn. I am going to put a couple of holes in it, and add a pair of dice. I should have it done before spring... along with all the other **** I have planned. LOL

However, I really like the plain round chrome ones. You could always get something etched into it... just a thought.

I agree, I think you could sell a few of these. Not into the skull thing though.
