"Fabricating brackets" kind of scares me. Should it? I'm wanting to mount the horns to my crash bar. Not sure at all about the compressor.

The compressor need to be mounted close to the horns and it is not the prettiest of items. I mounted the horns and compressor under the right rear saddlebag on my Goldwing and you can only see the front of the horns and it sounds great!

Off hand, I would doubt it. I would go with the bracket included with the unit. I love my mic, it works beautifully.

The weight is negligable, depanding on what else u have mounted to your fore-end. It will rattle a bit if you dont get it secured after collapsing it.

My bike is a DR650. It has DirtBagz brand pannier brackets. I have not fitted the Riggs to them yet but I wouldn't want to go with out the brackets. I think there would be melting on the exhaust and possibly interference with the rear tire while riding on rough terrain. YMMV

Hay buddy, I installed into a Kawasaki concourse. Originally installed on stock mount between radiator and front tire. The horn is big so that didn't work which ment I needed to relocate under the plastics and fabercate my own mount. I spent a rediculus amount of time tinkering but, like messing with my bike. Hay man I say go for it. Given enough time and imagination you can make anything work. I needed the extension cable to "Y" connect it from my battery and original horn cable, so be sure to get one of those. The horn itself is loud and much improved over the stock one. Good luck!

Shouldn't be a problem fitting it in the truck. I'm not where I can be measure right now, but my memory is about 5 1/2" in diameter and about 16" long. It has two feet spot-welded on it with holes drilled for mounting flat - if possible. My problem has not been either the tank, or the compressor, but the horns themselves are very large an irregularly shaped. That's the bad. The good is that the suckers are LOUD!!!

You may need additional wire connectors, vinyl tubing, screws and hardware if you decide to separate the Stebel Horn, as I did. By separating the horn unit from the plastic mounting bracket, I was able to place the horn in a very tight spot on my cycle. Applications may vary. Also keep in mind that the unit is chrome colored and not genuine chrome.

This will do it, although you will have to do it in stages, otherwise you run a real risk of burning the compressor out. Something they don't really make clear is that when you first get it, run it for a half hour or so with no back pressure to enable the rings to seat. I didn't and paid the price. The next one I did and it is running fine.

If you follow the directions for using one of the two mounting options that come with the boom, you will not have problems with it tipping. BUT... remember that the boom rests in a base and is held there by gravity and if you "lift" the entire boom when you are moving the microphone around, you could accidentally lift it out of the base and it will fall. This has never happened to me, much less have I ever felt the boom lifting when I was lifting the mic. Do not forget to order an adapter between the vibration isolator and the boom. There are two standard threads and adapters available ($3.00+/-) on Amazon and most music stores to adapt one thread to the other If you follow the directions for using one of the two mounting options that come with the boom, you will not have problems with it tipping.

My thoughts would be no, unless you had some super duper brackets. It is really heavy!

Hey Ray,That is what it is for! It works great and is very durable. When mounting the brackets pay attention to the angle and it will go together good.

I didn't use a torque wrench to install it. I just used the crush washer and made sure the alignment for the top holes was correct. I have this brake installed on 2 ARs and both of them had different amounts of force to align them. I have shot several hundred rounds through each of them and neither brake shows any signs of movement.These are LOUD though so make sure anyone with you doesn't stand to the side. Directly behind doesn't seem to be too bad but you can really feel and hear the concussion if you are a couple of feet to either side.Of course, hearing protection is critical with this brake installed.On my rifles the muzzle barely moves and I can stay on target easily for follow up shots.Enjoy,Rick I didn't use a torque wrench to install it.

I have a Polk sound bar on my bracket which weighs only about 6 lbs. 15 lbs shouldn't be a problem as long as it sits properly. Check the weight limits on the bracket to be sure. Love my bracket even though it was a bit expensive.

I have a airdyne I purchased in 1992. It is also loud when pedaling ,I have 38,000 miles on it and have replaced several wedge pins and crank brackets over the years. I completely disassembled it and lubricated and adjusted everything. the bottom bracket is good. It was quieter for several days and is getting louder each ride! I'm at a loss how to quiet it down.I just shut my door and crank up my headphones.

Keith, I've had two of these horns also, and both of them came apart like yours. Money down the drain. I called the manufacturer and they talked like that is a common occurrence! I had the new stock H-D horn put on and it sounds good. Louder than the older stock horn.

gotta drill a couple of holes in the aluminum panel....make sure its where ya want it the first time!! otherwise these are normally meant for "open" rails! I had to actually make custom addins for the brackets on my old '84 Palm Beach 21', since mine is smaller square tubing!!!

To me this seems like something you would mount on the handle bar. Otherwise, duct tape works wonders. :)
