Unfortunately they only need a success rate of one in a million to remain profitable. It cant be that hard to find 1 in a million greedy dummies.

If the horns face forward, the sound pressure of 180+ dBa might stop the bike. The spec for a train horn is 120 dBa at 100 yards. Where most horns are rated at 4 inches. A dB number without a distance is meaningless.

Was actually thinking along this lines. Mounted in the receiver hitch and doubling as a cooler rack.

More is better. You can never have too much of a cagers attention. Once I figure out how I will be upgrading the bike to train horns.

NNOOOOoooooo........

Me either.

Is that for direct fuel injection? Or solid fuel propellent?

HELLLLLOOOOOOoooo........ It sure has been quiet in the chat room since I went hunting. Where did everyone go??????

I'm still tellin Mama on you....... MAMA..........

I put one of the Bad Boy horns on my bike 5 years ago. I liked it so much that I added another one 3 years ago. They both still work great.

Puc, you do know that there are some on this site that would smack you up side da head ifin they found out you wasted one of my special balls..... I'm tellin Yama Mama on you.........

I may be a touch old school, but I think that a caliper and my 3D cad software could recreat those vanes just as well as a 3D scanner, and in not all that much more time. Unfortunately I do not have access to a 3D printer "yet"..... But the vanes are a simple enough part that someplace like protomold could make an injection mold for them fairly cheap and then crank out however many you want in whatever plastic you want. I'm thinking a glass filled black nylon that does not start to soften till around 350°F. ABS starts to soften at around 220°F. This 3D pic is what I threw together in a couple of minutes just from memory and guessing at sizes, It would be no big deal to bring it into size. The mold would be around $1500 so there would have to be enough interest in replacement vanes to justify it. I can output this part into the appropriate format for a 3D printer if we can find one.

Weather up here is wonderful. Sun is shining, It is a nice warm day, snow is expected latter today, it just don't get much better than this. Yes I like snow, it is fun and a change of pace. Maybe we can send you some so you can enjoy it to.......

How fast are you going in 4th or 5th gears. I rarely ever use 5th below 65mph.

Did you by chance have chili before the last ride??????

I may need to make a batch or three for medicinal purposes.......

Actually is usually the more expensive ones that draw more power, but are using that power for more light. I am not saying that the higher power LEDs are good or bad, just that if your reason to switch to LED is to save power, check the specs carefully before you buy.

Also you have to check specs carefully, There are some LED lights out now that actually draw MORE power than the halogens they would replace. You can no longer make the assumption that LED = low amp draw.

Well step one has been a success. They were able to put all of my inerds back in where they belong with no further complications. The incision site is still a little tender but I guess that is expected for a while yet. Now for the other problem. I went to the cardiologist again today and the drugs so far are working as hoped, things are at least stabilized. Tonight I start on the drugs that might actually try to kick start the deadbeat half of the heart. I will find out when I go back in another 2 weeks.

On my 1st gen I have the KC HiLiTES, 35 series 775 3x5 Black 55w Wide Beam Driving Light System. These are focused in between a driving light and a fog light, The lens is even angled out a bit to help side illumination. I got them because they do an excellent job of lighting up the sides of the road to see the deer coming while they are still in the woods. One of my plans for the winter is to convert these to 35W HID.

I must admit that I never saw a pink venture.......

A 1 volt drop between the RR and battery is a bad connection. As I said earlier, we are chasing multiple issues here. Find and fix the easy and cheap stuff first. With the bike running and everything on that is normally on; Check voltage from the battery neg to the black pin at the RR. Check voltage from the battery pos to the red pin at the RR. Use the lowest voltage scale on your meter, they should both be very close to zero volts. This will tell you winch wire has the bad connection. You can use your meter to check eack length of wire to home in on the bad one.

To late, I already went for ice cream and ate it all up. Remember I was bored tooooo...... There is nothing like going to Leons for ice cream and sitting outside in 10 deg F eating it. And I was not the only one there. Their ice cream is so good you will see people there even at -30 deg F.

Don't be jealous, tools and toys I have, that just takes some luck being in the right place at the right time. Skills, not so much. But I am having a blast trying to learn some skills.

Now if you were just closer, When i do mine this winter I plan to swap around as many as I can to get it rite. For the ones that are left, If they only need to come down a couple of thou then I will head to the correct corner of the basement and fire up the surface grinder to get them perfect.
