I was wondering if anyone has installed a Stebel Nautilus 139db horn on their Gs500.
I am asking because I am wondering if there is a fitment issue...

this is the horn I am talking about (picture always explain things better)

If you can find a place to stick it, go for it  :thumb: You'd probally be able to stick it on the frame behind the forks. Looks like it comes with a relay too, so you can swap out the stock relay (if we have one) if it isn't burly enough. A loud horn is a great safety item to have, the stock one isn't nearly loud enough.

Just make sure that if you put it on the frame behind the forks that it doesn't touch the fender when the springs are fully compressed, or you'll be buying a new fender soon.  Ask me how I know....

kinda the reason why I am asking if someone mounted it on a gs before, as I looked where the oem horn is at I cansee any real space for it to be safely not crushed....:)
