Default Nautilus Air Horn

Anyone installed one of these horns? Spoke to a gentlemen today who put one on his Ultra...said took 5 minutes to take stock horn off and mount air horn. I didn't get to hear the air horn though.

Want to get the idiot cage drivers attention when they change lanes or merge.

I think they are the same.B you can go to Harbor Freight and get about the same horn sometimes on sale bout $40.You can also get a HF coupon of the web and get 20% off any one item pretty easy.

I used a Mini beast air horn for awhile on my 06 Ultra, little sucker was loud. Took a little more than 5 minutes to install, not much more though. You have to wire a relay in to provide power directly from the battery. One day it quit working so I put the stock horn back on.

Question

Will either of these horns, Nautilus or Bad Boy, fit under the chrome Harley cow bell? I currently have my stock horn with cow bell mounted on the upper front forks. I want to use the cow bell so I can prevent any water from being forced into the horn---I'd rather have the horn facing forward than towards the rider.

Thanks, Barbara! Yes, the saddle bags are sitting in the garage. Hubby is going to install. Scares the crap outta me, because of the holes he will have to drill. He installed my air horn also. You need the horn and then some other installation parts. So it is typical HD expensive. Have you used your bags for your water bottle yet? How is it getting to it while riding? By the way, do you have a new lower windshield?

Waa-hoo on the saddlebags. I wasn't at all concerned about the hole drilling. I opted to have HD install, but heard it's an easy one. I have water bottles in zip lock bags on throttle side side...nice at signal light, reach down and have a sip (lol). You will really like 'em, guaranteed.
