accessories » Horn

I have just changed the horn from the standard item to a Denali sound bomb
What a difference £20 for the horn £12 for the wiring adapter.
Biggest issue is finding how to access the horn.
Remove screen.
Remove torx pins holding the central unit holding the DLR this can be un clipped and move forward to give access .
no need to remove fixing under the light cluster as this numpty did 😂

I’ve often considered changing the horn and even have a couple of options in my bottom drawer, but keep putting it off due to the hassle of fitting.

In reality, I rarely use the horn and believe horns are mostly used in retaliation rather than the official (UK allowable) reason of “audible warning of my presence”, i.e. as a pre-emptive strike rather than “Fock off you **** for cutting out on me when if I’d been paying attention I’d have simply ridden round you”.

Maybe one day.

I tend to use the horn as a warning to other road users at 50 80 meters or so gives cyclists and pedestrians warning that I am there not to scare the .....
Out of them😊
Of course if the are plugged into the phone or music player it makes no bloody difference 😯
Oh if you keep pressing the horn for long periods it takes out the electronic fuse die to load 😕 ignition off then on sorts the issue

Brian, did you get the Sound bomb mini?

Hi Sorry for the delay getting back to you yes it is the mini version it just fits in the space, vast improvement

Yes, following Brian’s experience I made the same change, pretty straightforward and fits as a direct replacement. Much improved tone and better volume, but honestly I’d still prefer it a little louder!
