Re: Relocate the horn
Smitty, this was such an easy install! Great idea! I really like how much louder the two horns are over the stock unit!

If you figure out a way to do it on the fatboy I'd like to know.

glade it work for you So easy it was almost like they made it for that.
Dealership found it intresting also.
By the way bike is looking good.

As for a fatboy I will have to take a look I have a fatboy also. Never thought about doing that one, only reason I did the Rg was because of the fan.
And if you ask about the fan working I can not say yet it has not been hot enought to give it a true test.

L ooked at my 96 fatboy the same thing will work. You may need to paint the mounting bracket the same color as the frame to help hide it.
The tank mounting bolts look like they would work just fine.
To busy this weekend but maybe I give it a try.

Re: Relocate the horn
I looked at my Deuce and I think Smitty is right, paint the bracket to match the frame color. One thing on the Deuce as compared to my Road Glide is the Deuce uses a single long bolt to hold the front of the tank verses the two bolts on the RG. Won't make any difference really...

This's just what I need as my horn is sound kinda funny. Question : Are you use both "low tone" horns or one "low" and other is "high"?.

Re: Relocate the horn
I would think one low and one high would be best or it would sound like a sick cow.

They offer louder than normal, normal, high , low and a couple in between.
they are coded by letters I mixed two different ones and it sounds fine.
