    Need one for the dirty toy. Could probably make any old horn work.

    or any of the discount auto stores, pep boys, advance, vip, etc

    haven't had to do it lately the horn on my strom at least works for inspection every year (I'm not a horn blower) on my SV, its the only time it would ever get used and it never worked, cheapest way out was to buy a horn for 8.99 from VIP (it even appeared to be identical to the stock SV horn in all aspects including markings) I couldn't waste my time fussing with the old one trying to get it to work for that kind of money

    I have seen people use bicycle horns with the ball on the end for dirtbikes to get plated.

    Thanks guys!

    DDK was kind enough to pick up a pair at the rice-o-rama swap meet thingie. Two for 5 bucks! So now I've got a spare.

    Re: Anyone have a spare horn lying around?

    Well that couldn't have been any easier...

    Took me all of 3 minutes to walk out to the garage, find the horn wires, plug it in, test it & bolt it onto the triple clamp. And here I was thinking I was gonna have to splice & solder.

    I love it when a plan comes together.

    jane has your skid plate. it came to me with no hardware, so with a couple metric bolts it should bolt to the rear of the frame, the front you have to fashion a little bar probably with a couple bolts and nuts, to pinch it around the frame. just make sure i get to ride with ya before you get too fast on that too.
