Stebel air horn

I had a stebel air horn lying around on my work bench that I took off of my Volusia when I traded it in and decided to see about mounting in on the Nomad. Turned out to be a piece of cake. The Nomad horn bracket comes off with one bolt then the leads pull right off of the spade lugs on the horn. Took a voltmeter to figure out what was what with the leads and horn button. As it turned out one lead is hot all the time from battery positive when the ignition switch is on and the other lead supplies a ground through the horn button. If you pull these leads off the horn DO NOT allow either one to come into contact with each other or anything else when the key is on or you will blow a fuse. I just had to plug the hot lead onto the positive spade on the steebel horn and the ground lead onto the negative spade, turned on the key and hit the button. Sounds like a freakin Mack truck. Mounting was a snap. Had a Kuryakyn P clamp that fit right over the case guard. I did have to do a little searching in a hardware store last year when I mounted the Steebel on the Volusia for a longer bolt to replace the short one that came with the horn to accomodate the P clamp. Other than getting a P clamp and chasing down a longer bolt this was a 5 minute job. Now they can hear me!!!!!!
