Hi I am intresed in the Chrome Nautilus Stebel how do I transfer the green backs to you

[Donor]

I kinda cheated, and nicked a Magnum that gijoe1313 wasn't exactly using...

And I can say without shadow of a doubt, the horn has saved my life on at least 3 occasions in the last 2 months.

Get one, and don't be afraid to use it!

Onya War-dude... yer a credit to the noise-making community!

[kave]

I am definately keen on getting the chrome nautilus, let me know how to get the cash to you

[Kaituna]

My DR needs a magnum. How can I pay you?

[Gubb]

Stoked with mine. I 'tested' it on 2 cars on the way home today. Works a charm,

:cool:

[lemure]

These are a great horn btw ... I want one.

the price on Bikerhighway.com HERE (http://www.bikerhiway.com/stebel-nautilus-compact-motorcycle-air-horn-chrome-p-279.html) is $US41.00 for horn and about $US25.00 shipping to NZ door. If you're buying in bulk with a discount, how come the prices are almost the same landed in NZ at whatever exchange rate - apples with apples comparison? Not being a smart arse, a genuine query.

The time frame is not fixed.

as soon as I have enough to place the orders, i do it.. so it all depends on demand.

Because I don't have to deal with a ex rate that all over the place and i have to pay gst on the order at customs, lets not forget the credit card charges oh and the convenience of have me do everything for you :), i don't do this for love mate.

You are more than welcome to purchase your own :)

As for the payment question, once i have the numbers i will pm you all with payment details.

[Mikkel]

I'm keen on a magnum!

[bert_is_evil]

Mine arrived today - woop! Can't wait to pick up the new bike this weekend and slap it on :)

[disenfranchised]

I'm keen on a Magnum....

They are easy to install though right?
e.g. Pull/cut old wires and plug in/solder, then bolt onto existing mount point??

[turtleman]

I'm keen on a Magnum....

For the Magnum - yes.

The Nautilus requires installation of a relay. Mine came with the relay provided, though it pays to install a fuse inline as well.

Well worth it - The Nautilus is farkin loud !! :love:

I'm sure there will be,

Update, the horns should be shipped within the week, i'll let you all know when they arrive.

Cheers for your patience.

[WarlockNZ]

The money is finally gone from my account .. after a long wait due to my supplier raising the shipping costs by 40 %.

I'm sorry about the delay guys, but rest assured you will get what you have paid for :)

Thanks for your patience, i really appreciate it .. as soon as they get here i'll let you all know.

Still no delivery i'm afraid, if they havn't arrived by next weekend i'll chase my supplier.

[WarlockNZ]

It would seem that even though the shipping cost was increased on me, the royal mail still sucks.

One of the packages has arrived back in england today and i still have not received a damn thing.

Sorry guys, i'm just as pissed off about this as you all are.

[zeocen]

Hey man, did this package come through in the end? And are you doing Round 8 any time soon? hehe

[twotyred]

One of the packages has arrived back in england today and i still have not received a damn thing.


so what are you saying?, it's been to NZ and sent back to the UK?

[Mikkel]

Grrr, that sucks!

I don't suppose that we will have to pay for the mail SNAFU though - or what's the story?

[WarlockNZ]

so what are you saying?, it's been to NZ and sent back to the UK?

If it's anything like the last time, the order would have been split up into multiple boxes, it's my understanding that 1 of those boxes has arrived back in england.


I don't suppose that we will have to pay for the mail SNAFU though - or what's the story?

No, you guys won't have to pay a cent more than you have already.

Once again guys and girls, i appoligise for the delay with this order, this is the first time that crap like this has happened, i am trying to find out what the hell has happened, but if I cant figure out anything by the end of June, i'll be in touch with my supplier to see what hes going to do about it.

As the order was never received or signed for by me, he is liable to replace the missing items or refund any money paid.

Thanks again for your continued patience.

[ritchtheitch]

Gidday Warlock, any update here? I am keen to scare Auckland Nor-West motorway traffic out of my lane...!

[WarlockNZ]

nope sorry,

I've emailed my supplier tonight to give him a rev up.

[ritchtheitch]

Gidday Warlock, what news from your supplier..?

[madandy]

Any chance of adding another magnum to this order while the delivery is still up in the air? payment made immediately if so. :)

[WarlockNZ]

Gidday Warlock, what news from your supplier..?

I'm expecting to hear back this week mate.

There is no local post office… all of your previous items have been received via courier post but without a track and trace number for the package’s they are unable to assist.


I’m afraid I that when I rang NZ post and asked if they had received a package/s for Murray Harris at my address, all I received was muted laughter. .. I don’t know how the Royal Mail works my friend .. LOL .. but that’s not how it works over here.


On a side note, I haven’t received the packed returned to you either.


I need some sort of resolution to this issue mate, I have customers who have pre paid for product that I have paid you for, that I have not received.


Please advise as to where we can go from here.

[Mikkel]

They seem competent enough :crazy:

How did you pay for the order btw?

[awayatc]

Bought mine online from OZ, took only few days ......All you need is creditcard.(seventy some dollars all up delivered it was ...)
Instructions as in how to install are included.....Just buy some beefy wire with 25A fuse.
I needed to seperate horn from little compressor, and connect with tube because I didn't have enough room behind little fairing to leave in one piece....

Credit Card .. if i don't get any joy, i'll try and get the charge reversed.

[Mom]

Gutted to hear you are having problems this time Murray! What a bummer for you, after all the other sucessful transactions you have done.

Whistle out if I can help, not sure how, but whistle out anyway!

Guys WarlockNZ is a straight up dude. Seems he is getting the run around this time out, lets hope he does not get shafted to boot!

[Gubb]

Aye, my transaction went smoothly. Pity it's the supplier that's giving everyone the runaround.

Warlock is a stand-up fella.

[CookMySock]

Credit Card .. if i don't get any joy, i'll try and get the charge reversed.DO IT. Do it tomorrow morning. Fuck him.

LOL

I'd like too .. trust me ... but it's his job to ensure that I get what i paid for ... if he's not willing to come to the party, then i can go to the bank and get the money back.

[CookMySock]

You have been absurdly patient and he is still talking shit to you - "check the post office" yeah right... Bounce him. :yawn:

DB

[Gubb]

It's hardly talking shit.

With the number of transactions in the past it's unlikely that he's trying to pull a fast one. It will be a genuine mistake, and he needs time to investigate it.

[Steam]

I needed to separate the horn from the little compressor, and connect with tube because I didn't have enough room behind little fairing to leave in one piece....

Did that work well? How did you get the bits apart without breaking it? What tube did you use, must be pretty strong tube to stand that compressed air? I need to do the same thing.

the airhorn bits are clamped around te compressor, and have a little o ring on that connection and a plastic locking tab.
You can pry them apart easy with a flat screwdriver or so.

Take the airhorn to your local plumbershop, and match it up with the right size clear tubing.(forgot how many mm it was)

It fits into compessor wit o ring, and fits around male tube from horn.

Now you have one round compressor to fit wherever you want...(I drilled small holes in fairing and cable tied it on...Hard to see)

I took the hacksaw and took the clamp of the horns and installed them pointing forward ad downward under headlight with help of ......cableties indeed

Now you run your clear plastic tube and connect both,secure tube around horn male end with small cable tie.

Doesn't come undone, works great and easy enough to cut cable tie when you need to remove fairing.
Cable ties don't rust, easy to tension up, can colour match......
Good luck,
Let me know if you need more help....
Let me know how you go....
May take pics of my setup if that is helpfull.....(find camera-charge it etc....):scooter:

[WarlockNZ]

Right ..

Seems the cock up was due to incorrect address details (no name and wrong post code), my supplier has told me he will send the packages again but via UPS this time.

so .... we should have the little buggers in due course.

I'll keep you all up to date and thanks again for your patience.

[Neon]

I can sympathise. Same thing happened to me a few years back buying records from the UK. They addressed it with no street name (yes, they wrote '36 Street'). It was returned to sender the day before I finally got an answer as to where the package might be (languishing at the postal centre). Took months to sort the whole thing out. <_<

[CookMySock]

yay! did you tell him you would talk to visa about ? :sunny:

DB

[WarlockNZ]

yay! did you tell him you would talk to visa about ? :sunny:

Nah ... didn't have to .. LOL .. he was very apologetic .. the funny thing was he put up the shipping costs and now has o UPS them to me so it's costing him more money .. ha ha

[WarlockNZ]

Box 2 of 4 of the original order has arrived.

the first 4 people who ordered a horn will be notified tonight.

[WarlockNZ]

Any further progress Warlock?

Yep ...

The package was shipped via UPS and promptly returned to sender because the package "CONTAINS A UPS PROHIBITED ARTICLE FOR INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS / RETURNED TO SHIPPER "

This is turning into a farce of epic proportions!!

Im just waiting to hear back from my supplier.

[WarlockNZ]

Message from my supplier.

"Murray
This is all going wrong!
The box used just happened to have a code printed on it that indicated that the box contained oil (which obviously it does not!) Have sent again.
Regards"

You have to laugh, you really do .. LOL

[HenryDorsetCase]

Obviously the air miles they are earning get put on the shipper's account. Its the only explanation........ ;)

Finally!!!! .

They turned up on my doorstep this morning. I will start sending them out on Monday.

No. I'll try this tomorrow and report back.

if all else fails try following the instructions.....

Hint: only one of the 4 little diagrams will apply to your set-up.....

[CookMySock]

if all else fails try following the instructions.....

Hint: only one of the 4 little diagrams will apply to your set-up.....So it has to be mounted ONLY one way ? +- 5 degrees ?? :blink:

Steve

[awayatc]

My instructions where one side for bikes with earth wire to horn button (most common).....the other side for bikes with positive/live wire to horn button

Then top was for leaving old horn connected......bottom was for replacing old horn with Stebel...

So once you pick the correct set up for your bike, you have only one of the 4 different diagrams to follow...

Magnifying glass came in handy for me to see the fineprint...

have a look at this link:



http://www.bikerhiway.com/installinfo/Stebel/stebelhorn.pdf

[CookMySock]

Thats for an air-horn - yeah if I wire it back to front it will suck instead of blow. Mine are just conventional horns. I figured it didnt make any difference. Will test again today.

Steve

[lemure]

Mine turned up Friday morning. Thanks. A m8 has one on his C90 and came around to see me at work. After he honked the horn there were people 150m away looking to see where the noise came from. LOL.

[toyboy]

I just put on a Magnum onto my vtr, now it sounds like a train comng down a track with the horn blowing to say get out of the way :) nice simple plug and play upgrade.

VTR250? Wouldn't happen to have any pics of how you mounted it would you?

Been thinking of getting one, but i'm not to sure how well they would fit in were the stock horn is.

Its easy as, just remove the stock one, use one of the metal bars that come with the magnum and screw one hole into where the stock mount is and the other into the back of the magnum and the plugs just clip straight on so no rewiring needed either. (you might need to bend the metal bar a bit to get a nice fit but otherwise its a straight swap) ill take a pic if you think you really need one

[Neon]

Yep. It's loud alright. :yes:

Thats right ... Round 8 has arrived...
