Two words - Hella Horns...We have a sound meter at work I tested them with - the meter maxes out at 109 decibels and the Hellas cause the meter to display an over range message.
At what distance? 1 meter?
Denali mini sound bomb. About same size as OEM, deeper lower tone more honk honk less meep meep. Same or similar power draw as OEM, which is important in my opinion. Don't want to place too much load on the system with a fog horn off a cruise ship, LoL.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnZr0QQmNQQSound test at 25 seconds into the video.
I have had a STEBEL NAUTILUS horn before but find the loud "honk" rather than a "beep" dosnt really get peoples attention.I think its the annoying high pitched BEEP that gets a better reaction.So for me the standard horn on my V72 seem fine for the city.Any other thoughts on the best "tone"? Not the nicest sounding as we dont want nice we want to be noticed.
FIAMM. Ready available at auto parts stores and, Guzzi requirement...cheep .Used as OEM on some Guzzis.
The embedded system would have flash storage where I could store any type of sound file -- truck horn, train horn, screeching tires, etc. Then with sufficient amplification, I'd be emulating a much larger vehicle or a serious impending traffic condition, to the ears of the distracted offender. I'm certain that it would grab their attention.
I've been toying with the idea of building an embedded system connected to an audio amplifier and horn-shaped speaker. The horn-shaped speaker will have a good impedance match to the air and be efficient transmitter of sound energy.

As a general rule, I believe that motorcyclists tend to grossly underestimate the importance and usefulness of powerful, penetrating horns, and thus the majority of bikes operate with pathetically flaccid OEM bleaters
