RE: I found a killer air horn option
What occurs to me is that they aren't as loud as some available (115 vs. 128db for the Rivcos, for example), and the HD docking kit(s) may interfere with some of the attachment points. They say to compare the "view on bike" photo with your setup and decide, but that might not be an accurate enough method to make a decision on a good fit. I'm amazed that these things can be stuffed between the wheel and saddlebag without hitting something. Also, would the placement (surrounded by solid objects and pointing down) muffle the sound enough to make a difference? Competitors are out in the open and it seems their position would carry the sound better. As a purely subjective comment, I like the looks of the trumpets in plain view on the left side of the bike.

RE: I found a killer air horn option
I would think that the trumpets not facing into the wind alone should make it sound louder, I had 5 Hella trumpets all facing side to side in car I used to have.....very loud. I saw this set up on thier site a few days ago and looked at the install instructions and the close proximity to the rear disk and wheel maks me nervous. I am also in the camp of not liking the trumpets showing, everbody has a preferance.
