Horn Upgrade. Really LOUD air horn. OMG !!!

[Havasu Secret_imp]

Hello fellow CB1100 riders. I wanted to post about a new horn upgrade I just finished installing. SUPER easy and took only 30 minutes to do the upgrade. I removed the stock two Honda horns that sounded terrible and like a 1963 VW. I purchased the Denali air horn combo and relay from Amazon. I will include the links in the bottom part of this post. Everywhere I looked, I could not find a video that really depicted the actual sound of the horn before I purchased it, so I just took a gamble and bought it. Easy one nut removal of the stock horn bracket, removed the stock horn clips and installed the Denali horn right onto the existing Honda horn bracket and connected up the relay. Tie wrapped the wires to hide the wires better (should have used black tie wraps) and I was done. OMG what a big difference. First day out, I was cut off by a car with someone on their darn cell phone. I hit the horn and sacred the pee out of the driver in the car. Saved my life right then and there. Best investment in my bike this year!!! See, video and links below. Ride Safe CB1100 riders!!!

lol - some days I could indeed use one of those.

So the bike didn't stall out when the horn was activated?

what is the big red thing on the brake lever?

Looks like an anti-theft device. Locks the lever tight to the bar?

No bike stall. Not even a hiccup. Works perfectly, just like it did with the stock horn.

You are correct, it is an anti-theft device.

Interesting, thanks. So you don't use the fork lock?

Yea... a brake lever can be cut quickly / easily and ridden away with no concern in the world.

Steering lock is not only free but a MUCH greater deterrent.

But I guess there is a market for everything...as not all people think alike.

On that note- I'm all for upgrading parts of my bike- and a louder horn has some value in my mind....but definitely not at the cost of ...questionable appearance...

Looks like this bike has Dunlop Roadsmart 3 front tire??

I use both the Honda steering lock aka fork lock with the ignition key system and this brake lever lock. I also use 2 Apple AirTags hidden on my bike in different places.

This is the link to the lever lock:
