Best place to mount a WOLO Bad Boy horn on a Gen 1????

[luvmy40]

I picked up a WOLO Bad Boy horn and relay for the '86 today. Has anyone mounted one on a Gen 1? If so where did you place it?

 

I'm thinking I'll just fab up a mounting bracket that runs straight back from the OEM mounting point and mount the WOLO unit in the recess of the lower fairing next to Cyl. 4

I made a bracket that mounted to the frame right where the horn does. Made it long enough to hang the horn outside the lower fairing leg. When I added combo fog/driving lights I made new brackets that carried those too.

 

You should put a horn on each side. Really gets you noticed.

Fabricated a bracket and mounted where the original horn was mounted.

Lower right side...simple bracket...where the old original horn went on my 89.

I mounted my driving lights to the original horn brackets, I mounted a Bad Boy on each side to the saddlebag crash guards. I used purchased chrome handle bar mounts to make the attachment. Worked great. 2 is better than one. I started with one and then a year later I upgraded to a second one. I ran them both off the same relay so it was really easy to add the second one.

 

If I had not sold the bike I was going to upgrade to train horns, a tank and a compressor running at 200 PSI.

Relay?

 

Do I need to get a specific relay for the Bad Boy? If so which one?

The relay is nothing special. the standard 30 or 40 amp accessory relay at any auto parts store will be perfect.
