Got to use the air horn

One way street, two lanes headed north. Some old guy, well - older than me so that makes him like---older than dirt, anyway he pulls out into his lane and I am approaching on the right. I'm close enough to see him clearly but he just starts to wander into my lane. I mash the horn button and this very satifying LOUD BLAST convinces this guy that he really should stay in his lane. He probably thought that he was about to be run over by a truck. I liked it.

I pulled my Stebel from my Suzuki before I traded it. I'm debating whether or not to put it on the Nomad. The Nomad horn is much better than the stock C50T horn was.

I wired my Stebel Nautilus with the relay last night. After the comments here I expected it to blast the leaves off of trees and set car alarms off all over the neighborhood. None of that happened, but it is much louder than the stock horn and has a nice two-tone sound. I like it. I think it will do the job quite well. However, I hope I never need to use it! ;)

CJ, my stebel came off my Volusia when I traded it in. Way better than the stock Nomad horn.

Yours is an airhorn though. I don't think they're the same horn. CJ may have the nautilus.

I think mine is the Stebel Nautilus, rated at 132dB. Can we say "LOUD"?
