Anyone out on sunday?

Wired up my air horns on saturday tho. also blew the fuse, and figured out the same fuse, does dash, interactors, horns.

That don't sound good.
Didn't you put in a relay with its own fuse?

no just used the current horn connector, but now i have put a 15amp instead of the 10amp that was in there, it worked fine for the first dozon times i used it it blew when i was seening how louded it sounded when i was doing 130km/h thats when my dash stoped, put 15amp fuse in and everything works fine

only place i found to put the horns is under the rear seat any way

If that fuse blows, cut a 4 inch nail to the length and replace with that, no way that will blow..... , saw this done a few years ago , we had gone to a house fire, and were trying to ascertain the starting point of the fire, we had checked all the normal things, still could not find the cause, as we were walking out the space were the front door used to be we noticed what was left of the switchboard and there in one of the old porcelain fuse holders, and in it was a short 4 inch nail... the guy was a mechanic at the local garage :confused2 ..

...until the wiring melts? Mebbe...
I dunno how your bike's wired, but airhorns draw quite a bit of current, and you may be pulling all that through the puny horn wiring (including the switch).
With my last coupla bikes, I put in a relay wired to the battery with larger gauge wire (and a fuse), then plugged the wire that used to go to the horn into the relay. Bigger gauge cable to the horns (or compressor in your case?) and you get fatter sound, even with standard horns. And no risk of ferkin up your switch blocks.

Well, best you get inventive. On my VFR, not only did I add an extra horn, but I relocated the standard horn to somewhere else so I could mount the New! Improved! WreckYouLater/Rectumfryer! under the steering head (where the horn usually goes. Took a fair amount of "what if"-ing and head-scratching, but eventually I found a couple of places under the fairing panels where the horns could go, and all was schweeet. And loud!
Take that! You naughty car driving morons!!

Well i don't use the horns that often, so not to worryed about melting anything.

There was no were at the front i could mount them that was not seen, either you could see them, or they are to close to something else for my liking.

Under the rear seat is fine for me, not like i gonna ever carry a passager on the gixxer
