    Moto Horn Makes Your Bicycle Sound Like Something It’s Not

    One of the dangers of cycling is that bicycles don’t make a lot of sound. On the road that often means that they are not noticed by drivers. Making your bike sound like a phony motorbike, which is what the Moto Horn does, might help in that regard, but chances are that a $10 noisemaker won’t be loud enough to make all that much difference.
    To me, that's kind of like a gazelle, after noticing lions keep trying to eat it, buying a zebra disguise.

    Nice! I didn't see the video on the linked page. Apparently it's an old design kids used to use in the 70s... some spring loaded system.

    You could try a trick from the '50's - a fat mudflap just at the muffler outlet.Makes a Tiger Cub sound like a mudflap too close to the muffler.
