New 139db horn for the SV

[SpankMe]

My Stebel Nautilus Compact (http://www.nippynormans.com/prodinfo.asp?number=STB-NAUT-COM&variation=&aitem=4&mitem=4) just arrived in the mail. :eek5:

Can anyone recommend someone to install it and hook it up so I can easily switch back to the stock horn as I assume 139db wont pass a WOF.

There's some good install instructions (http://www.sv-portal.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18423) on my SV site.

Hey Spank,
i put one one me GIx was pretty simple really the only thing is you have to do is find a good spot to put it, i mounted mine under the seat, i cant remember my sv to well but i think there is plenty of room behind the motor in front of the shock, i ran a wire to my old horn (positive") and bingo good as gold, as far as getting a warrant, you can just plug the old horn back in simple, i dont know who would install it maybe an auto electrician" its a simple job if ya have some tools--
ps its fuckin loud--

[SpankMe]

No tools, no auto mechanic skills. I do computers, not mechanical stuff. Good to hear its loud. Sick of cagers ignoring the pussy horn on the SV.

[GR81]

i have never heard of someone failing a WOF because the horn was too loud.
guess ya never know tho! :O

[Ixion]

Nothing in the WoF rules about being too loud. Too quiet, yep, and it's not allowed to play music. that's all.(oh, and has to be a horn, not a bell, siren, whistle, cat etc)

yeah man" its wicked-- you pull up beside a car" and blast that thing and they jump outta their skin" especially here in howick"
have a look to see if ya can find an installer" if not i could help ya" however all care no responsibility---

No retrictions! Thats it, I'm getting a train horn (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1171013797384954189&q=train+horn&pl=true) fitted to the bike.

[justsomeguy]

Giggity - I want one - GiXer where did you get yours - can I get one in NZ or do I have to get it from overwaters?

[GIXser]

there is a guy in auck; that imports them, i can give him a call if ya want-- ps you can get them cheaper overseas btw, but im an impatient fucker and wanted mine here and now

[SpankMe]

Mine cost with postage £34.57.

[cowpoos]

how many AMP's [current draw] is the said horn rated at?

[justsomeguy]

Spanks costed bout NZ$100ish - if your contact can get it around that price and help install the thing then I'd rather buy it from him.

[Cajun]

i just got a set of dual air horns mounted under my rear seat cowl.

[The Pastor]

Got a phone number or some contact details for someone in nz who sells them :D

[GR81]

if i ever try and install some hardout horns, ill probably just go for some seashell horns from repco or similar, they make some good noise and arent too expensive.

fuck me, i want one of those :laugh: :killingme

that's friggin awesome.. I'm gonna fit one to my bike and car...


hey Spank, fit a mercury switch and an on/off switch to the new horn, then when it's parked up flick the switch on. Anyone who sits the bike upright off the kickstand will activate the horn until the put it back on the kickstand.. $2 alarm.. easy as..

Thats a damn good idea. Why didn't I think of that? Just need to be careful and you remeber to turn it off before standing the bike up.

[bugjuice]

well yeah..
if you're real cleaver (which I try to be sometimes), you could make it so that the circuit/switch is off when the ignition is on, so you don't have to worry about on/off..
it'd scare the shit out of whoever tried to dick with your bike, and everyone looks when a horn goes off, but no one cares when an alarm goes off.

And a 140db horn in an underground carpark? fuk..

Hell yea, come back to see whats up and you find a whole lot of people kicking the shit out of someone, not for trying to take your bike mind you, but for blowing all their eardrums.

Spank, any possibility of posting a sound file once they are up and running?

[SpankMe]

It could be someone just wanting to sit on the bike, horn goes off and they drop the bike. :crazy:

True, blown eardrums aren't the best for maintaining balance. :pinch:

[bugjuice]

why should they be touching it? I wouldn't be too keen on people sitting on my bike when I'm not around. Don't mind when I'm there and I know who they are, but when the bike is unattended, I don't want people jumping on it, no matter how wet in their pants they are.

And I'd rather a wannabe thief drops it where it's parked, than scoot off with it

[R6_kid]

do you have 139db speakers?

smart ass... watch the video, its the sound not the volumn i want to hear. :blink:

[GIXser]

i will phone him now-- i dont want to post his number , will let ya know soon

[The Pastor]

Ok cool, Maybe you could PM me or somthing?

[The Pastor]

What if there not a thief and where just having a look? Sure they shouldnt be touching it but if you didnt have the 139db horn as an alarm they wouldnt do any damage to it at all. (As im almost certian that a 139db horn would make them drop it)

[bugjuice]

well, like I said, no one should be touching your property without you around.

[Storm]

Bloody oath, theres too many sets of sticky fingers out there

[SpankMe]

Colemans are gonna install it for me on Wednesday. Will let ya know how good a job they do. Looking forward to blasting my first arrogant cager.

[justsomeguy]

i will phone him now-- i dont want to post his number , will let ya know soon

Thanks, I'm still interested.

BUggy - if you can actually do whatever the techno stuff you mentioned earlier - that would be primo too :niceone:

[bugjuice]

what do you mean if? it's a piece of piss..
was gonna do it today on mine, but Jaycar is shut..

[GIXser]

sorry chaps, my guy is not bringin then in anymore turns out his contact was" in new orleans" i guess he's a bit wet now--

[justsomeguy]

what do you mean if? it's a piece of piss..
..

For you maybe, I'm not that technically savvy. Now that GIXer's source dried up anyone have any ideas on getting them in NZ?

What you doin nowdays anyway..... don't see you much on rides. Come on the ride tomorrow should be fun, although we are leaving Auckland in the middle of the night - thanks GiXer:thud:

[bugjuice]

my bike is floating from the ceiling of the gargre at the mo, so I can't. I'm doin stuff all weekend anyway, cos the bike is temporarily off the road until next wednesday on top secret stuff

[kickingzebra]

Bugjuices bike is making P? One of the unaired monster garage episodes... Monster garage, P Lab in a 636!! Ride Paranoid, Ride Px636 express!! (don't forget your tin foil hats under helmet!!)

Spank, if you can put together a twin processor system you can install a horn!! I'd help if I was closer... Gutted.

JSG The internet and a credit card should do everything you need to get a loud horn!

[Aiolos]

One of THESE (http://www.hornblasters.com/products/details.php?item=NAK5) would be the fun.

Hmm, where to put the air tank...

[SpankMe]

FUCK! Just had my Stebel Nautilus Compact (http://www.nippynormans.com/prodinfo.asp?number=STB-NAUT-COM&variation=&aitem=4&mitem=4) installed by Colemans and my ears are still ringing after giving a demo to a mate. :shit:

[bugjuice]

answer them then, it could be important

[kickingzebra]

Call diversion can handle it....
Cool... Your gonna be on the lookout for fragile looking old grannies then, test the heart attack factor...
Could be useful for cop cars with hot coffee and doughnuts too...

[The Pastor]

Spankme, Is your horn powerd by compressed air, or the battery?

[SpankMe]

battery  

[Pixie]

I just read the specs,it is an air horn with the compressor and horn combined in the one unit.

[phantom]

Bought some air horns with the idea of fitting them on my GB but I'm fecked if I can find anywhere to put them that doesn't look too naff ( no plasticware to hide stuff like on a sprotsbike )

[kickingzebra]

Under the seat, or in the rear mud guard.. she'll be right
