Finally put my air horn on...
It is Wolo with a Kuryakyn cover.
I tried to mount it on the front frame but it is big and wouldn't fit correctly between the radiator and lower fairing. After experimenting with various possibilities, even where the stock horn was, this spot was the best. Not sure how long the horn will last since water can flood it due to the direction but we will see. Yes it is plenty loud! Install was easy. the hardest part was figuring out where to mount it. That pee-wee horn just didn't cut it.

I have a 2013 Voyager and I mounted my bad boy right where the factory horn was with a small L-shaped bracket.

Be sure it doesn't hit the fender when braking hard or big bumps.

You may want to reconsider keeping the horn in that location. If the front compresses to much it will dent the fender. Don't ask how I know.

Mounted my wolo inside the right lower. Directed sound out of the opening on upper inside. Made bracket out of l-bracket, pipe clamps from local farm store. Have had several people look for it and unable to decipher where it's at......still plenty loud.

I looked at mounting in the stock horn position but my brake lines bumped it when turning the forks...so that was a no go.

I had same problem as Matman. Looking for another solution. Probably on right side or inside the chin scoop.

I guess it all depends on if you like the look of where you placed it.

With these air horns, did you just connect it direstly to your factory horn wires or did you run it through the suggested after market harness and relay? I just purchased a Denali SoundBomb Split Dual-Tone Air Horn.http://www.twistedthrottle.com/denal...-tone-air-horn

I used the relay on the ones I've installed. Too much current not to.
