Easy Wolo/Stebel airhorn mount

kevlar250 · March 30th, 2010, 08:34 AM

I needed a better horn than the Road Runner's "meep..meep" so I carefully constructed a bracket to use a Wolo BadBoy airhorn (or Stebel Nautilus, they're virtually the same unit, probably made in the same factory). I used an existing bolt and a flange that had a 5mm thread hole so no drilling needed. I don't know if anything is bolted to that unused hole from the factory (maybe Cal emissions stuff? if anyone knows, please inform me) but it was available on my '08. I ran a 14ga. wire fused back at the battery and pulled the old horn wires to route over to the new horn relay. I've made a jig where I can mass produce these, send a PM if interested. Standard units will be black, this one is red for pictures, unless you like red. Comes with the 5mm screw.
Cell phone talkers beware, you will hear me now!

Neat installation!

Ugh, I want one of these brackets on my 09'

I finally got a half-hour together to install the mount.

Fits great... like it was made for the purpose.

Because, well, it was.

I decided to just go simple and bought a plug-and-play wiring kit for the Stebel Nautilus, which is the same horn as the Bad Boy. It truly is plug-and-play.

As far as the horn goes, well, the bike sounds like a 250.

A FRAKKIN' F250!

Has anyone seen my socks? They got blown off and I can't find 'em.

Forget the horn. The truck is nice, hope it's a diesel.

Sorry, not into humongous vehicles the size of city blocks.

I drive a Honda Fit and ride a 250.

If I needed one for work, then sure. But I don't. I like using the right tool for the job.
