How 'bout on your helmet

oh wow never even thought of that, now if I hurry up and order a second one and mount them like one on each side of the helmet, like antlers (animal horns) with a quick disconnect like 49 suggested, that would be awesome.......mmmm.... food for thought......

What about crossways, right above the crash bar?

No did not move my rectifier but not sure if that will work as it is pretty low, and want to keep the trumpet out of the rain or debris, so this weekend after the Relay for Life, I'll spend the time looking for a place to mount it. The wiring is good to go, so that part is simple now.....lol......

How 'bout on your helmet..... :o   you know- like a quick connect camera mount.  Then put a plug on the wires, so you can un-hook to get off the bike for fill-ups and what-not.   You'd be the talk of the town... :D

I'm having trouble envisioning places with enough room for that big horn, actually.  Unless you mount it up front some place, sticking out the side a bit. I'm sure you'll find a place to tuck it in.

You could mount it under the radiator, or did you move your rectifier there?

You could mount it up on the forks, maybe on the light bar... :o

Keep us posted, can't wait to see it!

no room for it on the 800.....thought about black but because the bike is red it might work for me....but can make changes for it during the winter....

Is that an aaooga horn? Putting on on my Drifter too; with a little trimming on the bell it will fit between the rad and cylinder; going to paint the bell black first though.

  ok I am sorry it is not winter yet and already PC has me thinking project list. But no I am just messing with you folks, but I need to thank Troll who is moved to hero list and to GB for helping me with this project I decided to do.
I am not an electrician in any sense of the word or meaning, but I wanted to add a second horn, but not replace my original horn. Now the 800 is not in itself lending itself to most projects because of limited space and hiding areas. I first thought of hiding the horn behind the windscreen under my windscreen bag, but nope not enough space. So went with my second option.
I want this done for the Biker Reunion on the 28th ~ 29th so it will be a decent but temporary set up. Over the winter I'll be really making it look a lot better.
but my new horn and my test bench to see if I had the wiring harness done right...... more to follow once the rain stops and I can get outside....
