Obviously a horn can help someone 'see' you in a bad situation, and with how loud truck exhausts are getting, and how well dampened most from the factory cars are now a days (not to mention all the idiots with the $100 wally world subs in a Geo Metro) a loud horn is a good idea.
Now that I'm done preaching to the choir: I want a new/louder horn. Had a PIAA sports horn on my last bike... was never really convinced it was a vast improvement over stock.
I'd like to avoid air... more work and bulk than I'm looking for.
Options I've found:
"Wing Blaster" 138db pair From Chrome World $59 + $8 s/h

Hella Supertones (pair) 118db for $52 shipped on Amazon

Piaa Sports Horn (single) 115db for $45 shipped on Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/85112-115db-50...6182520&sr=1-1
There are cheapo 130db horns out there... but since it's exposed hanging from the front of a 919, and my life could depend on it working, I'm thinking a better brand might be a worthwhile investment (get what I pay for and all).
Thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks,
Peter
