Re: replacing my horn
All you're doing is triggering the relay. (+) from either stock horn will accomplish that. The relay only uses a very small amount of current.

Re: replacing my horn
Correct. You can use one of the horns (I used the closest one) to supply the power for the relay coil.Bluewaterhooker0 wrote: ↑Fri May 29, 2020 10:35 am All you're doing is triggering the relay. (+) from either stock horn will accomplish that. The relay only uses a very small amount of current.

Re: replacing my horn
I have horns just like those on my 95 trike, 1500. i would like to get the same ones on my 89 CSC trike but i cant find the bracket that goes that goes with the horns. my question is: where did you get the bracket? did it come with the horn? all the Rivco Dual Air Horns i have seen dont show brackets that come with it

Most folks go with some sort of air horn. There were a couple on my bike when I bought it that I removed. Didn't like the look. I would prefer something that fits in the OEM location or that is not visable.
Had two sets on trike when we bought it, so loud it would spook riders behind me I'm told, definitely LOUD on us. Took left side ones & compressor off, left right side on. OEM horns just unhooked. Compressor strapped to frame down tube. Rivco. Thinking I might mount the extra set under rear pointed back towards followers on a separate button.
