Horns & hooters

Hi Guys from sunny South Africa - At last I have found the time to fit alternate / louder horns / hooters. I bought a set of Stebel's complete with relay for R:170/$25/13 pounds and proceeded to fit them - a very simple operation. I cut of the existing plug leaving enough wire so that if I had to I could re-attach - mounted the right one using the existing bracket - the left using one of the brackets supplied - wired it up using insulated crimp on spade terminals and "Voila" a seriously loud setup - this will really blow the cage drivers away - photos attached.IMG]http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t199 ... rrelay.jpg[/IMG]ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

Hi ErikM - Nothing has fallen off so it must of come without it - what is the "carbon cannister" - I also read recently of guys fitting bar risers and worrying about clutch & brake cable lengths etc - no cables on my bike apart from accelerator cable - both clutch & brake are hydraulic.

US bikes have as part of the emmision control a big cannister , 8" tall maybe 3" round tucked up in front of the front shock, looks as if you guys in S. Africa not have to have it..

Nope - Nothing like that was ever with the bike - comes as you see it with side & centre stand, ABS, the mini screen and thats it in SA.
