So needless to say no one can here this poor sounding horn. Looking at a few different options but have seen nothing on the GEN 3. I am not opposed to all electric horns either. Just have not torn the front of the bike off yet or ordered anything. I will be tearing it all apart in the next two weeks.

I ran a Horn Blasters air horn on my Gen2. It fit in the stock location if you bend the stock bracket. I ran it for a while, but on big bumps it would contact the top of the fender (I was lowered). I eventually swapped back in a regular horn.

This was 12yrs ago, I'd like to hope that someone now makes a similar horn in an even more compact form.

Forgot to mention that I ran air horns on the Gen1 as well, but it was one of the parts store horns with 2-3 horns and separate tiny compressor. I had the compressor mounted where the OEM horn was, the trumpets were under the dash (between dash side panels and body). This was louder, but more cumbersome to install.


If you use anything with a compressor, don't forget to wire in a relay.
