Thanks for the info. The Fiamm horn that is supposed to fit is the Freeway Blaster Part#72112. It can be ordered from 1-800-748-0251. I ordered one this morning and hope to have it in a few days. I'll let you know how it works out.

I have no clue what horn came stock on my Legend, but it's louder than most car horns; our neighbor that went riding with us Sunday was looking around trying to find the Cadillac that tooted at him...but it was me!
:-D

I'll look at it and post what I find.

Hi Slinky,
The Freeway Blaster is made in the US and is 132db. I think the ones available to us are only 109-112db - however, since they are an improvement I will be spending a tenner in Halfords this weekend. Thanks for the recommendation Tom.

I have a Fiamm Freeway Blaster (134db) on my T100. Horn comes with a brassy looking galvanized finish that is grainy and probably doesn't match anyone's bike. I used steel wool to smooth and score the finish, then painted the front disc chrome and the remainder black, including the mounting brace and bolt. As I recall there were about 5 four inch long mounting braces and one 90 degree brace. As the Fiamm horn is about and inch deeper than the stock horn, I took one of the four inch braces, put it in a vice and bent it at a 45 degree angle about an inch from the end, then turned it over and bent the other end so that both ends were on parallel planes. Looks great & works great.
