    I know loud pipes save lives, but so do horns. The horn on my '02 FLHTC isn't any louder than a kid's bicycle squeeze horn!!!!

    Now that I am done whining, are there recommendations for replacement horns out there?
    Air? electric? brand?
    Thanks,
    Rick

    I have the Rivco, work great, compressor took a dump after 6 years so I bought a cheapo Wolo at Harbor Freight and replaced the compressor.. Works fine.. Air horns do
    need some maintaining, pull off once a year, soak them in a warm soapy solution, clear out water then spray in some silicone spray to lube the diaphrams.

    The Wolo type can be hung on the stock horn mount, or you can break them apart (compressor and horn) and mount horn under the bell and compressor elsewhere, you just need a hose to run between them..

    All the above are standard horn replacements
