Stebel Nautilus for an RS.

[Insy]

It's a bit incongruous when one has a really cool looking machine that has all the performance upgrades, goes like the clappers, turns heads everywhere and then goes "" parp"" when you blow the horn.
In order to remedy this, I intend fitting a Stebel Nautilus air horn but need to know how involved this will be on an RS. I see from the forum that RT owners have no major issues with fitment but want to know if any RS owners have done the mod and if so could provide some detailed info.
Ride safe.

You can order the "ear cannon" from Aerostich, it's a Stebel, and they've got the relay kit available. You'll need 2 PosiTaps to hook into the existing horn wiring; I mounted the relay just behind the stock horn, drilled a 1/4 inch hole in the frame tab just behind the fuse box to mount the horn, hooked up the wiring (relay direct to battery, relay coil parallel to horn).

lousy horns

Same issue as Insy. But you should hear the horn on my Honda FIT - even worse!! I have 2 WOLO Bad Boys on the way from Amazon, one for each vehicle. Thanks Mr. Orange for the info and pictures.

simple replacement?

Isn't there an easier swap-out replacement that sounds better? Without new wiring harnesses, mounts, and fuses?

I agree, the horn is wimpy!!!

Thanks

I was also hoping the Stebel could just replace the stock horn. :dontknow:

The Horn reminds me of the circus , when all the clowns gets out of the car.. It's alittle embarrassing. Has anyboby just replaced the horn? And if so, what kind did u use? Don't feel like wiring up a new bike at the moment, but need to change that horn.

Straight swop ?

Hello chaps, thank you for the good info and pictures. As I am not too clued up on the electrical side of things, is it not possible to just swop the wires off the stock horn and attach them to the new horn ? or are there electrical issues that I am not aware of. I'd rather ask a stupid question and get it right than do something stupid and get it wrong!
