Since this thread came back to life ... I thought I'd share a funny anecdote.
It's not the best of weather here in Oregon right now, but I don't let that stop me from riding. Early this morning I had the bike warming up and I was suiting up in my rain gear, which can be a bit of an event, and the bike stalled while idling (it was pretty cold).
Anyway, I was half suited up, the bike dies, so I reach over, pull in the clutch, and since I only have one hand free, I push down hard and long on the HORN button instead of the starter. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Ooops! Just a stupid mistake, but that ****ed thing is shockingly loud every time she blows.
Anyway, I love my stebel horn, but my wife and kids aren't so sure about my using it for a morning wake up call.
