Bulky and only a bit louder...

It's humungous, the Nautilus... And in real terms not that much louder.

how much was the postage?

I think it was about for £4 bringing the total to about £16, I know i could have got it cheaper a Halfords but as usual i found out they sell them there after it had arrived.

Oh yeah, the Nautilus is great fun if you set it off without having it bolted down- the torque reaction sends it sliding around the floor

When I sold mine it went on EBay "Used once, some scratches on left side"

did you take off your lowers to fit it?..

I think the nautilus may need a relay? Maybe not on the SV but I do know the fit isnt as straightforward on the GS, possibly a lack of resistance with then Nautilus. Ok, probably a red herring for the SV

Just the left hand side, i used the two metal brackets that came with horn to extend the one thats already fitted, i positioned it so it is pointing outboard and slightly down.

Just fitted a magnum on my SV1000 _ had to -adapt' the original bracket by bending it outwards a bit, and adding a right angle bracket to the end, but the magnum fits in a treat - connectors go straight on with no need for a relay.

Bllody loud it is

hovi5,

No way mate, you'll see when you do it, the new horn is about 3-4 times bigger.
