Thought the group might be interested in this from the ST group if anyone is
thinking about adding a horn to their bike.

There was a follow up message that commented that anything that sounds like
a siren is illegal in certain states. Apparently this unit only warbles when
the horn button is depressed for more that a couple of seconds. Pretty
inexpensive way of getting cagers attention, no?

Also, thanks to Brandon for his commentary on my visit to Salt Lake City a
few weeks ago. It was a great opportunity to meet both he and Allan and I
learned alot visiting Allan's home to see his bike apart. Looking forward to
riding with any of you who might venture toward the Seattle area in the
coming months.

Mike
