Fitting aftermarket horns - SV650.org

10-06-14, 04:54 PM

The stock horn on my ZX9 is quite dull and croaky so I've bought some twin snail shell type horns but don't know how to fit them or wire them up.

All that came in the pack was the brackets to attach it somewhere on the bike.

The only place where there is enough room to fit them both is between the engine and battery.

These are the horns I bought http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BIKE-IT-TW...item2c7c18dbde

Any help appreciated. Thanks

This has been asked many times so a quick search turned up Rictus' fitting instructions...

You will have to adapt for fitting to your bike but the basic premise is correct. Things like where to fit and bending the brackets etc are specific to a curvy but the wiring and mounting is true for any bike. The horns you bought are very similar to Fiamm horns.

Thanks. I tried doing a search on my phone at work but nothing came up.

Can't view that file without installing crap on my computer.

I'm guessing I also need a relay, fuse, and some extra wiring to actually fit them.
