The Horn of Jericho!

HD Premium Air HornJust got my latest addition to my bike….a new Harley-Davidson premium air horn!

It started with my 20,000 mile service.

It was the day before the MDA Live Ride, and I was making sure the bike was ready for the long ride to Homer. It was frantic at the shop (as usual), and I was more concerned with replacing the back tire and the tranny than anything else.

So…get the bike serviced and off I go!

Long story short, I have to use the horn to let a jackass know that there happens to be another vehicle in the lane this guy wants to come into and the horn sounds like a cat with a kazoo shoved up it’s ass!

I do some random horn tweaking and it kinda gets better (now it it sounds like a goat with a healthy case of diarrhea….woo hoo!).

So here I am, over 250 miles from the dealership with a shitty horn.

When I get back that week I roll into the shop to talk about my horn (OK…I bust into the shop yelling what the FUCK is wrong with my damn horn?!?!?). As I’m discussing my horn woes, one of the sales guys shows me this huge ass air horn.

As I look at it, the parts guy says he can even demo it for me.

Demo a horn?!?!? OK…I’m game.

What he does is he gets a battery out of the back and hotwire the horn.

It was loud…very loud and I was in love!

Since then it’s paid for itself two times since I bought it – and you’re buyin’ if you want the stories (like how I got a SUV up on the sidewalk). WELL WORTH THE INVESTMENT!!!!!!

    So I’m confused. Does the premium work or not because mine sounds sick too

    The premium horn works GREAT! I turn heads from 100′ out now.
