Has anyone installed a Denali Soundbomb Mini horn on their MP3? My son just got it for his Yamaha FZ07 but he wants something even louder. He asked if I want this Soundbomb Mini of his.

It's supposed to be plug and play and is supposed to be able to use the stock horn's relay. No new relay is needed. That's the attraction to me -> plug & play simple installation. And it sounds plenty loud enough for me.

Thought I'd ask here on the forum first in case anyone has had experience with this horn that they may want to share. Thanks.

PS. A search for Soundbomb came up empty on this forum. Also, I read somewhere that the stock horn draws only 2A, but this Soundbomb Mini draws 5A. So maybe I'd still need a relay afterall...

How loud is the mini sound horn. I ordered one for my NC700xd, but it hasn't come yet.

It's not loud like a truck horn or something. But it's much louder than the teeny MP3 stock horn.

I put their 2 piece air horn on my BV250 very loud. However do not install it without a relay. It will shorten the life of the switch. Relays are cheaper and easier to get than horn buttons from Italy.

And to further confuse the install I would wire a 2nd relay to prevent the air horn from sounding on a tilt lock failure.
