Of all the aftermarket parts you can hang on your ride, an airhorn is probably your last consideration. But brother, you'll wish you had one when you're dodging a minivan or semitruck that's heading your way at the speed of light while the driver is staring at the soccer team in the back seat or busy trying to light a smoke, doing anything but looking at you.
The average motorcycle horn is not very loud -- around 85db (decibels) if you're lucky. My neighbor's kid can scream louder than that. The Stebel-Nautilus Air Horn will give you some decibel chutzpah, up to db, but not the 139db which is advertised in some places (the Stebel-Nautilus Max goes to 139, but not the Compact).
This airhorn is also nicely plated with a good thick grade of chrome that won't fleck off after your first ride. It truly is compact, measuring 6.2 inches across and weighing 2 pounds. It can easily be installed underneath the casing for your stock horn, or elsewhere in addition to the stock horn -- the chrome is attractive and you can mount it anywhere that works so that your horns sounds simultaneously for a truly "look-at-me" moment. And, for ultimate night-time safety and bling, you can actually buy aftermarket lights and wire them to your horn relay so that the lights come on when you hit your horn.
