Anybody ever install TWO HD Airhorns?

RichardS

I have a Harley Air Horn installed replacing the stock horn on my '03 Ultra.

Recently, I got a killer deal, (well, as compared to new) on another one exactly like the one I already have, (40 bucks, like new, ready to install with hardware), and I'm toying with the idea of mounting the second in addition to the first.

Has anyone else done that?

If so, where did you put it...it looks like a chrome 6 inch "mending plate" type bar with a hole on each end would get it seated on the same mounting bolt and just under and to the right of the first one, and then it's easy enough to gang both together electrically.

My questions are:
1. Does this seem like the best route or just the easy way out because it's the only alternative I see? I'd rather put it on the other side, but don't see a way to mount it, so any suggestions would be appreciated, as well as any other mounting suggestions elsewhere on the scooter.
2. Will this additional air horn tax the system electrically in any way, including the horn circuit itself?
3. Anything else I'm NOT thinking of?

Or...should I just throw it in my spare parts box in case my first one takes a dive?

PS: For those of you who are going to suggest louder pipes, I can't give up the tunes while rising alone, and the wife suffers from migraines occasionally nowadays, so when she's on the back I can't have anything blasting up at her constantly from the exhaust like we used to do when we were both younger.
So for the first time in many years, I have kept the stock pipes, and the quiet is "dangerous quiet" with regard to being heard as well as being seen. I know loud horns don't replace loud pipes, but it's all I got Guys. Work with me here.

Any thoughts, Crew?

If you look at your tank mount bolts up front you see you can take two extra loud cars horns good ones are about 13 dollars with the simple mount that comes with it bolt them to tank mount bolts they up out of the way some waht hidden run couple short wires and you have a very loud horn setup that lean and clean.
Nothing to make no hole to drill no ill effects to your bike.
If you wnat picture yell.

I would definitely love to see pics of what you did, but seeing as how I already own the two air horns from HD, I'd like to work those into the project rather than buying car horns...can I see what you've done just the same? Thanks!

Here some shots of the horns mounted this trick is so easy and cheap it is hard to beleave how well it works

Smitty, nice job! I don't think I have that kind of space though...I'll need some other suggestions, but what you did is great!

Just another thought guys...if anybody has a suggestion as to what might be louder than what I have already purchased, (two air horns), and installed, (one of them), please feel free to speak up! That said, I'd really appreciate any thoughts you might have about what I can do with what I already have.

I have a 130 decibel air horn on my bike sounds like a semi but now I'm depressed. My girlfriend was beside me in traffic in her car, windows up, stereo jamming when I beeped my horn to say hello. She never heard me.

Loud noise just doesn't get through modern automobile soundproofing. Ride as if you're invisible, you darn sure can't be heard.
