Horn relocate mod' - pics!

Didn't like where my horn was situated, so I moved it!
No issues with reduction of noise output (very minimal).

Any issues with the noise being reflected back to you by the screen?

I don't see any issues with the orig position unless you want a larger unit, and thus have a better note. I still don't understand why superbikes have a scooter horn. The big bikes should have an appropriate deep note, bit like a semi coming through ;)

That's why you buy yourself a V-Twin with open pipes, mate. So that other road users HEAR the Voice of God bearing down on them...

I think it's down in front of the radiator, I've noticed it on the z's and thought it should be moved too.

That's what I thought, but wasn't sure. It's behind the radiator on the left on the 750..

agree 100% - I found my old Fiamm electric air-horns the other day, and will be fitting them to the MFP12 shortly - they are LOUD with a capital L !
