How difficult are these to fit? Is it a DIYer or would you recommend getting a bike shop to handle?

The magnum is a stock replacement, no drama at all, it really comes down to where you want to fit it.

I have fitted both types of horn on different bikes with no mods at all and on another i had to extend the wiring for the horn, a DIY'er should be more than able to handle it.

[WarlockNZ]

funny, thats my video ... lol

Indeed it is! I luckily remembred it. Long time ago too.

[jeremysprite]

Ok cool... could be interested in about a month. Whats your timeframe on ordering?

all depends on how many people sign up, i'd like to get it done asap.

I like my Nautilus on the 'busa but now I feel a need for increased "get out of my way" for the DR.
I'll take 2 magnums!

One for the DR and one for my fiancés Hornet.

To maker her Hornet more Horney.

[Big Dog]

I have been really thrilled with my Stebel.
I have had it at least 4 years, goes great.
No one ever waves back in a oh there you are cavalier dismissal.
It is more a look of abject terror.

My Nautilus was fitted by a mechanic because I had it fitted during a scheduled service being as they already had the fairing off.

If you want to pass a warrant with it I recommend you warn the testing officer before he puts his head down to test the horn...
One of the testing officers at VTNZ nearly dropped my bike on its side in fright when the half deaf tester leaned forward to make sure he would hear the feeble pheep he as expecting, ear about level with the head light and gave it a prolonged burst that tested the part in his wispy hair.
Hard to say whether he was closer to shitting his pants or having a heart attack but he sure was apoplectic when he turned to face me. With his whole body shaking me he said in a quiet, calm but but unsteady voice "You might want to warn people about that."

I fully rate them in the best way I can I have just PM'd an order for two more.

[bogan]

don't spose you or your supplier have a price matching arrangement? can get a nautilus delivered for 75 bung off ebay.

[grusomhat]

funny, thats my video ... lol

You should make infomercials lol. I'd love a louder horn but broke at the moment :(

[Big Dog]

What currency is bung?

our dollars bro!

Had a look since your earlier post, but to be square I'd rather deal with Warlock again. There is always someone cheaper than wholesale on trademe\ebay\etc. not enough difference in price to change my mind.

Does make me wonder where they expect to make their margin.

You won't regret the spend. Had mine 4 years and still stoked with it.
$80 / (365*4) = $80 / 1460 = $0.0547945205479452 per day of appreciation for fine engineering.

Or it's 2 trays of alcohol

Or 2 tanks of gas in the 'busa
Or 5 tanks in the DR
Or one weeks smokes for a typical smoker.

yeh, thats what I was wondering too, though maybe these are direct from warlocks supplier

[Big Dog]

The last time I tried to save money by buying internet below wholesale cost I ended up with a dodgey GPS that has 2 year old maps that can't be updated because you guessed it they are an illegal copy and the MF is not replying to my emails.

I am totally up for an on line bargain but now I want the back story if something is substantially below cost.

yeh, each to thier own, just thought I'd ask whether warlock was willing to match the price. Personally I've had very good experiences from online stores, and would use them in this case.

[WarlockNZ]

You sure about that?, i've had a look around ebay and yeah i can one for $75 delivered, which works out around $107 NZ... that being said tho ..

no, i'm sorry, i wont match the price, for a number of reasons i won't go into here, feel free to get yours from ebay, i wont be offended. :)

Nice... grab it while you can bro. :)

[Blackshear]

Hey mate, I'm keen.
When will you be thinking about placing the order?
It would be nice to know your ballpark date goal.

[Maha]

I have dealt with Warlock in the past and can highly recommend the deal.
The Stebel is a great investment for any bike.
My Honda has a blokey sounding horn unlike most bikes so I dont need a Stebel, but they sound amazing and the looks you get when its used?.....
Pricless!

[avgas]

blokey sounding horn
Please do explain.

[Maha]

Please do explain.

I will try....
But most bike horns sound like the road runner.....'meep meep'
Whereas The CB's sound like the road runners heavy smoking uncle.

[WarlockNZ]

Hey mate, i'd like to plce the order asap.. but it all depends on the number of people that want to get on board, from memory, round 6 was 1 month, while round 7 and 8 were 2 mounths waiting for people.

[Big Dog]

You have received payment for my two.
How many more to make the order?

[blackdog]

i'll take a magnum mate, pm me wiv payment details

Thanks mate, always nice to see the old school making an observation :) ... where you interested in a horn?, or just trying to stop this round going ahead??, while i have no issue in your making a comment, i'd prefer to keep things on topic :)....

that being said, yes .. previous rounds have taken time, but no one has had any problems with either the length of time or the product... if people feel i am taking to long, they are able to back out of the sale as i do not ask for any money until we have enough people to place an order ( this means it can take a month or 3), as for the people who prefer to pay in advance, they can get a refund whenever they like :) ... i'm not in the habit of spending money that isn't mine.

This group buy has been going on for years, thats why we are on round 9 .. so again sir, are you interested in a horn ???

[Virago]

...are you interested in a horn ???

No thanks, bought one last round...:rolleyes:

And despite the long delays, I was very happy with the product...:yes:

Only used twice in anger as yet - one of those on an errant pedestrian who indeed nearly shit himself...:lol:

It's more often used to get my wife's attention when she's riding ahead of me. Either way, it certainly works...

Glad to hear it :) ... always nice to have a satisfied customer ... LOL ... there you have it folks, if you want to scare an errant pedestrian or gets your wife's Attention, the stebel is the way to go :).

The sooner you resister your interest, the sooner we can place this order... lets get it done!

Hey Warlock, I couldnt get the wav files to work. Would the magnum be similar to an airhorn? I had an airhorn on my old SV and that was pretty decent. The DR is more like an asthmatic sparrow.
And as I understand it the magnum is pretty much a straight swap with a factory horn, is that right? Something that is not that hard to do yourself?

I once tooted at a pedestian... in a car park as we were leaving work. An undergorund car park.

She dropped her bag and froze, then we both laughed and I carried on.

The following day she admited she had wee'd a bit.

Yep, the magnum is just a swap for the standard horn... i'll work on getting the sound files to work for you.

[Scotty595]

put me down for the magnum, I want to make pedestrians in carparks wee themselves :D

[Eyegasm]

I'll take a magnum.

Mmmmmm magnum, now I want an ice cream....

[Mully]

Got one of these off TM a while back - the Magnum.

I fricken love it. Particularly for the bint in the Red Commodore S on the NorthWestern who likes to beep at filtering bikes for no reason. One morning her driver's window was open when she beeped. So I beeped back.

She no longer beeps at me, at least.

Giving serious thought to putting one in our Corolla..... Just for shits and giggles. And Auckland traffic.

Your on the list mate .. You too eyegasm

[WarlockNZ]

only need 3 more people and we are good to go ........

who else wants to get in on this?

[gijoe1313]

Hey Warlock, I'm needing another Magnum, so that should cut your list down by 1!

[WarlockNZ]

Hey Warlock, I'm needing another Magnum, so that should cut your list down by 1!

No worries mate.

[WarlockNZ]

Looks like we have enough.

I'll contact those on the list with payment details and i'll close Round 9 on the 23rd.

as soon as all the money is in, i'll place the order.

[Jonno.]

Does price incl shipping or is that extra?

[WarlockNZ]

Shipping is listed in the price mate, i include shipping in the final price by default.

[WarlockNZ]

Tomorrow is the last day for orders people... if you want in on this order, now is the time to let me know.

[WarlockNZ]

we have had one person withdraw from this buy, so if anyone else out there wants to get in, please let me know.

[Big Dog]

I thought it was a bit rude the way some other people have tried to subvert the thread. I mean would you stand outside Motomail giving away flyers for Cycle treads? Just not cricket is it?

If you have not found a buyer before they arrive I'll grab the extra.

[WarlockNZ]

Order placed.

thank you to those who have placed an order, i will of course keep you all up to date.
