I’ve still got to trim up the bracket some but it fits with no interference anywhere. I’ve pushed and pulled to try and get these as close to the motor and out of the way and this is it. Once everything is painted they won’t be as noticeable. [url=https://postimg.cc/vcXZ0Kns][Image: 13acaf9cc1eb545e6bf8b1e4b364074e.jpg]

I have a access to the oil filter and I’m not sure how they will be positioned,I may position them so the electrical connector on that one horn isn’t as noticeable.

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.
