    The panic button delay is a great idea, actually. Avoids accidental "pocket activations" and wrong-button-presses.

    Ok, install complete. One horn was mounted to the factory horn mount, the other horn I mounted to the rad mount with a 3/8" bolt. Made up pigtails for the wiring that plugs into factory harness. Sounds fantastic! will get a video soon.

    The factory horn is a bloody embarrassments. My sport bike has a louder / meaner sound. Changing it is very high on my to do list.

    Nice. Did you leave the factory horn attached too for extra goodness?

    Bonus points for the tunnel clip.

    You can find them at local auto parts store, or look them up on Amazon.

    No, I superimposed the original horn sound. (it's actually Jenn's Versa horn, it's same as ours) One of the horns is mounted on the factory horn mount (on the right).

    The tunnel is under the Peterborough Lift Lock
