Is there a louder horn made for the Trophy?

I've had quite a few situations where a better horn would've come in handy. You know. Minivans creeping in your lane. Deer who want a closer look at your bike. That blue hair asleep at the green light.

Thanks for the help.

I will agree with you that the horn on the Trophy is pretty lame, I can probably yell louder. If you ask my students, they would probably agree. :-D I have heard mention of a horn by a company called Fiam, I think, if I spelled that correctly. Hopefully, someone with a little more knowledge can jump in on this.

I purchased a FIAM horn at Advance Autoparts. It was less than $20, mounted in 15 min, and way louder than the stock horn. The model I bought was something like the "Highway Blaster"...maybe...it's been a while.

I had the same problem with the horn on my trophy. But I cured it by just tuning the horn using the smell screw in the centre of it.
Turning it clockwise a little at a time increases the decibels. Mine is now as loud as a car.
