    Default Best horn ever!

    So I've been riding for about 2 years now. The first year and a half or so on electric, and now gas. I've always thought something was missing, when someone pulls out in front of me not realizing that I'm going 30+ instead of 10. Obvisouly a dingy bicycle horn isn't going to work.. So a few weeks ago I attached a 135 db air horn to my bike. Works like magic! I would highly recommend it. People instantly put on there breaks trying to find the semi they just pulled out in front of. Best safety money i think you could spend aside from lights and a helmet...

    Default pics

    heres some pics. sorry for the crappy quality, but my cameras broke and had to take them with my phone, plus the bike is all black so its a bit hard to see. All it is is a refillable canister I got from advance auto parts. Lasts forever though before needing refilled. The third pic is a random one I took of my gastank. put a set of emblems on the bike from an old trans am I had. Havn't tried attaching images yet, so let me know if it worked.
    Thanks!

    Images came out fine.

    Advanced Auto, eh?
    I wonder if O'Riley, AutoZone, or Pep Boys would have it.
    After your review of it, I want one!

    They work very well for arousing the drowsy cager! LOL! I like using mine on the 18 y.o. cell phone talking female teen variety. The initial look is hysterical. 90% of the time, the phone goes sailing and the look of WTF was THAT? Is priceless!

    Got mine at a marine store, under $30, USCG approved for a 40ft vessel! Let 'em think the Queen Mary is shovin in!

    AF, the horn you've pasted the pic of is the one I had been using with my delta trike that got smashed. I plan to mount it on the tadpole trike I am now building as well.

    Great horns, and as I related a while back, mine definitely saved my life.

    Default marine horn

    Hey Al mine was the same as yours... just painted it. How long do those cans last? Mines lasted a few weeks now with plenty of use...
