    The horn on my 2014 tiger roadie has started squealing like a stuffed pig.
    I had a look at removing the panels to get a better look but it looked a bit fiddly so before I attempt this I was wondering if there is an alternative solution out there that does the job better, but still fits in the tiny amount of room provided??????

    you must be a mind reader....(hopefully not though!!!)
    I went out into my garage & found a Stebel mini horn from another bike I had it fitted to....trouble is trying to fit it somewhere inconspicuous. Got cut up really bad today & when I sounded my standard horn (purely as a warning I was there of course) it sounded pathetic:(

    Stebel Nautilus - bloody great. Got one on mine. You can split the horn and the compressor, but still take up a chunk of space. Got it under the fairing on SV650, but couldn't get it on the gixxer, no chance, not even split.
    They are good, very loud.

    Tigers are a nightmare.... No space anywhere to put it where you`d here it. There is a space low down but it`s a bit too near the exhaust for my liking. Bugger:mad:

    Under a side panel? That's where I had it in the sv.
    You could probably put it under the seat and still hear it loud enough!!! :D

    Yeah.....It may fit under the seat pointing forwards. Beauty about the stebel compact is that it dont need any relays, it`s plug & play

    Mine's not the compact, and I do use a relay. Easy if you can run it from the horn straight.

    I had a set of nautilus ones on a sprint 955...suitably impressed.
