smalley250 Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 Ive got a number plate and wonder does anyone bother with a horn for the road use. My bike has not got one or any wiring as i can see for one, so what do you use if any thing. PS ive a big mouth maybe a "move the f*%k out the way" may suffice.

nitsua Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 yes you will need a electric horn that makes a continuous noise you can no longer use a bulb horn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_scorpa3 Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 yes you will need a electric horn that makes a continuous noise you can no longer use a bulb horn You must have a horn to be road legal and strictly speaking it should be a continuous tone. Battery powered ones are available but surprisingly hard to find. I wired up a cheap motorcycle horn (from ebay) to my redundant headlight wires. When I turn the light switch to on, the horn sounds. (I do only use this for MOT's as I don't ride on the road very often!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am told that Halfords sell the battery powered continuous horns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of 'ping pings' but no proper horns. You might have better luck with a big store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
