While driving in New York City, good part of my commute goes to using the horn. Alas, it sounds like "pee, pee" and between the drivers that are texting and the drivers who are blasting the rim covers off their wheels with their 1000W amps, nobody hears me anyway (much less do they see me).
Has anyone mounted a Denali Soundbomb or similar aftermarket horn on a CB1100? If so, how and where on the bike? Any info is greatly appreciated and , if at all possible, please post some photos!

I managed to get the horn partly inside the cavity on the left side of the frame and the space between the gas tank on the left side. "well hidden"
and the compressor sets straight up under the seat. Be sure to buy their harness and relay all put together and save yourself the headache = it sounds great under there , simplifies the forks and gives more direct air flow into the oil cooler. NOTE --I do have the 4.7 Gal K10 tank if that makes any difference. good luck , good choice

I'm not sure about the tank. I bought the 3.9 gal in part because of its looks. I was thinking about somehow simply replacing the original horns with a soundbomb. Just need to figure out if a) how much can fit and b) if the existing bracket can handle the weight. I don't particularly care a lot about the looks, I just want to be heard.

Why do you need a Soundbomb? Just get some LOUD PIPES!

I kid. I kid.

Loud pipes push their sound backwards.
Horns push it forward.
All you're doing with loud pipes is annoying everyone around you as you pass.
