They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and for my money I'd rather try and hide the 139 decibel Stebel than those Rivco monsters.  I can attest to the effectiveness of the stebel on errant cagers... they start looking for the 18 wheeler that "honked" them!  On the 800, I may be able to use the helmet lock location for the mounting spot.  Stebel (WOLO) can be had pretty cheap at Harbor Freight.  Mike in TX

Agreed, the Stebel isn't very pretty.  They do make a chrome model now but it just becomes something else to keep shiny.  I may remove mine from the KLR and try to find a suitable mounting point.  Mike in TX  BTW: What's a Rivco??

I have one on my TRUCK!... but prefer the Rivco's (we sell) on the bike... have the chrome version on the bike. The Stebel's are butt ugly and would have to be hidden IMHO! <g>

Trying to find out if anyone has mounted one of these excellent horns on the 800?  I've mounted one behind a fairing panel on my KLR650 and it wakes drivers up!  BTW: Harbor Freight sells their copycat under the WOLO name, and it's identical for around $35 with a relay included.  Mike in TX
