Default Alternate horn locations?

Anyone have any ideas about alternate mounting sites for the cowbell horn? I 'd like to open up the left side of the engine , but don't want to lose the loudness of the horn.Any ideas?Thanks

I mounted two very loud horns using the front bolts on my fuel tank. I like how the horn location change has cleaned up the side of the engine.

I discovered from my used bike the guy who had it, put one in the fairing (I discovered this when Installed my radio) and had kept the stock one also. The horn is frickin loud.

If you are at all handy or a little mechanically inclined, several people I've read about have mounted horns behind the saddlebags which cleans up the left side of the motor and hides them behind the bags where they are still very loud. Do a quick search on Air Horns as a subject and you'll get a lot of ideas.
