Pointy Horn Location?
 
Is there any chance anyone can take a couple of pics of where the horn is located and bolted to on a pointy please? On the bike I just got it came as a non-fitted optional extra ;) and I can't see where I need to bolt it????

Many thanks

I think its behind the radiator on a pointy?

*on SVs the mounting bracket it's a straight piece of metal that bolts just above the radiator to its left. But being straight it sticks out a lot, although it's covered by the fairings. On a naked I don't know maybe the bracket has a 90 degree bend, if not it would be sticking out; but yeah it's a bracket it's not part of the radiator so I do not think any piece broke off from your radiator.

Make sure that when you mount the new horn put some rubber washers to absorb the vibrations if not a bolt can come loose or the bracket might actually fail...

*found above on svrider

It does bolt onto the radiator as standard, but if you put it there, every time the thing gets hot, it packs up. I moved mine and mounted it on the fork leg.

Thanks Geodude, all bolted back on and thanks for the tip Jayneflakes, I'll keep an eye out for the problem but just wanted it back on so I could MOT it and get this one back on the road.
