Stebel to the rescue! - Page 2

desertdog · 09-29-2009, 09:57 PM

Since installing mine back in June, have not had occasion to use it except to accelerate road runners (the bird) crossing the road in front of me. Almost hit a couple of the little buggers last Saturday.

A blast from the Stebel helped them across much faster, otherwise I's have been picking feathers out of the radiator.

You old coyote you. Was that a Stebel or an Acme horn?

I've lived in AZ for 10 years and probably haven't seen 10 roadrunners in that time. You see 2 in one day.

gghost, ugh, better keep your day job. Ha

I love mine I have scared the hell out of a few folks ;) ;)

Cj: If'n you want to see road runners, try the back roads around Gila Bend, Salome, or Wickenburg. Seems to be plenty of them, and I have run over 3 snakes too. 2 of them were the rattling kind.

Of course I am getting out into the boon docks and off the beaten path that most riders travel.

Definitely a Stebel, it worked like it should, (grin).

Since I live in the SE Valley, I tend to ride north and east of Phoenix, I don't venture across the valley to Wickenburg much, because I have to fight 100 miles of traffic to get there.

i spend most of my time riding near Globe, Payson, and Oracle.

Since I put a Stebel on, it has come in handy. Even a short blast, gets attention when it's needed.

Can't wait to blast my new Stebel and unfortunately I am sure the opportunity will come soon.

AlabamaNomadRider · 03-12-2010, 10:42 PM

I have definitely got to get me one. I have put it off too long.

Well now I am interested....
Which model of the Stebel?
Can anyone post some pics of where you have mounted it?
Thanks

Loud horns save lives.

I love it when I mash the horn button and a cage driver turns himself inside out trying to get back where he was. They have to think that they are about to be flattened by a Mack truck. HA

I mounted mine on the top crash bar bolt. I retained the original horn so I can use either one of them.
