The photos are on their way, Morten. I hope the original horn makes more noise than the reproduction.

I agree Dave! my re-pop can barely be heard over the normal engine noise at idle! adjustment is of little help

That's right, Mike. I was going to fit a small loud horn in the trumpet horn body, but I think an easier option will be to hide it behind the fork tins. Of course, a rap on the throttle tends to get errant pedestrians moving pretty quickly!

I prefer the shout " HEY Wake up F___head!" with the quick rap on the pipes. Works everytime! pictures of horn mountings
