- June 18, 2014, 13:04:58 PMOk just finished ordering a second horn from Princess Auto.
Wiring is really simple just a slight mod, got the rest all done. Just wondering why it is not more common to see this it will save lives, 49 you are now in the list for Inventor of the decade for the Forum.
Same bracket, drill 4 small holes in the helmet and use flat head bolts to mount them and a tad more padding there to prevent bolt marks on your head.
this is just a mock up for now...the clamps will be removed.......

The wiring is good to go, so that part is simple now.....lol......
How 'bout on your helmet..... 
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... 
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.

- June 17, 2014, 22:15:50 PMYou could mount it up on the forks, maybe on the light bar...
Keep us posted, can't wait to see it!

- June 17, 2014, 20:15:31 PMno 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....

- June 17, 2014, 19:49:07 PMIs 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.

- June 17, 2014, 18:04:43 PM 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....
