StarUmp Posted May 1, 2011 Share #1 Posted May 1, 2011 Have a '99 Venture and the factory horn died. I'm looking to install a Bad Boy where the factory horn was mounted on the right side of the bike. Can any one give me some help and / or suggestions as how to do it and what to mount it too? Pictures would be really nice...heck pictures would be wonderful!!!

BoomerCPO Posted May 1, 2011 Share #2 Posted May 1, 2011 Contact Carbon One ( a member here)....He sells a NICE stainless steel bracket which will make the horn install easy and solid. Boomer....who sez ya can't have enuff lights or loud horns on the scoot if yer not packing pygmies with boat horns and road flares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted May 1, 2011 Share #3 Posted May 1, 2011 Yes, I think he ever sells a wiring kit for it. At least he used to. Here is a link to his stuff in the classifieds. http://www.venturerider.org/classifieds/showcat.php?cat=24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condor Posted May 1, 2011 Share #4 Posted May 1, 2011 Gotta question. Are both horns dead?? There are two horns on the RSV's. If everthing is gone I'd suspect there's a wiring problem.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globewalker Posted May 2, 2011 Share #5 Posted May 2, 2011 I used Carbon One bracket.. works good. Just note.. it is designed for a Stebel Horn which comes with a black spacer that needs to go between the bracket and the horn. The Wolo horn IS just like the Stebel but does not include the spacer. I have used a nut and a washer for now until I find something more attractive.. but who's looking that close anyhow right.. I like the Wolo all Chrome .. ordered from Harbor Freight I put the Relay under the side cover since already had a fuse block under the seat. This allowed the stock horn wires to plug right on also. see pics I have a RSTD but assume is same as Venture. Hope this helps, Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrinGT Posted May 4, 2011 Share #6 Posted May 4, 2011 I recommend the Carbon one bracket as well as the wiring kit that he sells. Simple plug and play and worth the money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamico Posted May 5, 2011 Share #7 Posted May 5, 2011 Ditto on the Carbon One bracket comments. Buy the relay harness too... makes it plug and play. And if you're up for looking into another great mod, and have highway pegs, Larry makes a great set of braces that stiffen them up, stops the front crash bars from flexing, etc. Ride Safe.

Danaman Posted May 9, 2011 Share #9 Posted May 9, 2011 Just installed the Wolo on my bike with Carbon One wiring kit and bracket. It worked great but as stated if you are installing the Wolo you will need a spacer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickster Posted May 10, 2011 Share #10 Posted May 10, 2011 What did you use for a spacer and where?? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
