Ha! That won't last long.
Magnublasters. Or now just know as 'Magnum'. Same as described above. You can purchase them HERE.
Before the search police to a google search for Magnum site:fjrforum.com There are a bunch of topics on installing after market horns. Watch which year the bike is as there are some differences (as I understand) between Gen I and Gen II bikes. I'm getting ready to do my Gen II in the next couple of weeks.
I installed the Freeway blasters which are very similar if not the same thing. I did not have to modify anything, but made new brackets out of 3/4 or 1" aluminum purchased at Slowes. Onec you take stock horns off, you will see why I had to make new ones. The stud on the back of the horns was too short to go through the rubber grommet with washers and all. I then slightly bent the brackets back before installing. With the horns on the proper sides(clearence for trumpet) pushed all the way to the sides and with the angled brackets, there is at least as much clearence as the stock horns. No cutting of anything.
Mine were quite a bit smaller (and fit in there better) than the TM80's, but the sound isn't....
+1 on the Freeway blasters, same part numbers you will find in Ignacio's Bin-o-facts. I bought a set when I was in MB a few weeks ago. I used the braket that came with it and bent it a bit so it was closer to the radiator and would clear the forks. Although I did have to trim a small amount of plastic from the inner panels, you would never know. They fit great and sound way cool!! I just used a good quality relay (Bosch) on the power lead, and grounded the horns off the frame.
FWIW, Bosch is now out of the relay biz. They sold out to Tyco, who now makes the same high quality relay as the original.
Hey, John
Yes, I used a relay. I was talking about no modification of the plastic. I don't like to alter things that there may be another work-around.
I've had stebel horns but the best I've used on my ST1300 and now my 08 FJR. It is dual PIAA horns that just plug in where the stock horns were. They are a little larger but not much so bolt up OK. I haven't had to use any relays either. They are quite loud. They are dual tone 400/500s. I ordered my from amazon thru autobarn for about $40.
Hey JDP...that sounds much easier than all the 'plastic surgery', 'wire-pulling' and 'special relay harness' solutions. After all...it's just a coupla horns, right? Are you sure that the dual PIAA horns just bolt on and operate properly without all the fuss?
