RE: Working nights does have its benefits........

That's pretty sweet! My last job gave me access to sheet metal and lots of machines, and I made something very similar for my last bike. One thing I found out, however - the few times I had to use my horn, I found that it didn't really prompt the desired reaction by car drivers as much as the meep-meep motorcycle horn. My thinking was possibly that when a driver hears a dual-tone "American" car horn noise, they automatically scan for a car, not a motorcycle about to cross their path. Your mileage may vary, of course. I like that the CB has a dual horn.

For a long time, I had a side gig making four-tone Cadillac horn setups that could be dropped into any car. Cleaned them up, made mounts and dual relay harnesses. Sounds like a train. I put my last set in my wife's little Honda CRV. It sounds awesome, but when she hits it, people look for something much larger.
