I have the mini beast II. It is my first airhorn. I have had mixed reactions when I have had to blast people. Sometimes the driver really reacts to it when I blast it, but a few days ago a big girl in a minivan changed lanes while I was in her blindspot. I blasted her while I was only a few feet from her ears.
She gave no reaction. I had to brake hard to keep her from pushing me off the road. Maybe I just happened to find a deaf woman?

Do NOT, under ANY circumstances waste your money buying a Bad Boy air horn.
They are nothing but JUNK.
Purchased one and then my problems started.
Because of the cheapness used in manufacturing, plastic rather than chrome, the way the Bad Boy attaches to the bike - it will always loosen, look for another product.
Bad Boy hornes are JUNK!
You would think that the way they are made the manufacturer would be HD.

Got the HF bad boy horn yesterday $30 w/10% coupon and they`re on sale. I work in a truck shop and it sounds like a truck horn allmost. If I can find a place under the saddlebags I`ll mount it on the scoot otherwise it`s going on the Benz. It`s made of plastic, noise is impressive, durability questionable being an HF product.

I have wanted an Air Horn for quite a while now, so I trekked off to my local HD dealer for the HD one that looks like a snail. It was $140, not bad I thought. Then it came with a $75 installation kit ………….WTF. Then sales tax $18…………..Then it came with ½ labor to install it $35…………..total $268 NO FREKKIN WAY
Well after being almost run off the road twice in the past two weeks (I never told the wife and you guys keep you mouths shut about it), I needed an Air Horn bad. Hopefully the next person to crowd me in my lane will get a blast and sh$t their pants, is what I hoping for.
But $268 is bull crap. So I went to eBay and bought a Mini Beast Air Horn 128 decibels for $108.50, new in the packaging, shipped to my house. He shipped it right out too. I installed it myself without cussing. Pretty simple install, if I can do it without cussing. LOL
This baby is loud. I also put a Harley-Davidson caliper insert on it ($12) and people think it is a Harley product. Including my HD service manager when I showed him how loud it was.

Anyway, I am pretty happy $108 vs. $268. It sounds just like a Semi horn too.
