Does your bike have a polite horn ?
« on: February 10, 2021, 11:21:55 AM »
I see a lot of threads about installing LOUDER horns.  Which horns are the loudest.  Etc.

Well, I found a "polite" horn at the flea market, for a dollar.

Turn on your sound......

I had one like that on the KTM, it was funny to catch up to someone on the trail and give 'em a ding ding  :wink:

No horn.  In Indiana  they are required, but illegal to use except in an emergency.   Emergecy is not defined under I.C. Code.

I've put them on different bikes.   :thumb:  Funny to see people in traffic looking for the bicycle doing 60 or 65 mph. 
From the Deep Deep South out in left field.  There are no stupid questions.  There are however stupid people asking questions.  🤣, this includes me.  😉 Hawaii.

NO!!! ...and I have LOUD horns on both of my bikes... :thumb: :cool: :wink:
 
Dual Hella horns (German) on the Guzzi and the infamous Steibel Nautilus "Air Cannon" on the Victory!!

IMHO - There is nothing worse than a a "weak horn" on a motorcycle... :laugh: :grin: :wink: :thumb: :cool:

Polite? HAH! On the Eldo, I run a dual air horn setup that blares a solid 200 decibels. Not the loudest one on the market, but I guarantee that those around me on the road will hear it, when I make a complaint. Going to upgrade the CalVin to the same setup.

I've ridden 3 days in a row, and you northerners are putting horns on your bikes.  LOL! 

Love that it is a Bell bell.   :thumb:
