BBB Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 A plea to anyone who has fitted this after-market horn. I fitted mine using the mounting strip from the OEM horn, rather than the one supplied with the Denali, simply because the Yamaha one seemed thicker. But, now the MOFO buzzes loudly when the engine gets above 70000rpm. Loud enough (obviously) to hear over the engine. The horn doesn’t seem to be touching anything, although is close to the left fork there are no marks there so I’m confident it’s not touching. Anyone else had any problems, or suggest a solution? I think I binned the Denali mounting strip so that’s not an option. Red 2015 Tracer, UK spec (well, it was until I started messing with it...)

Dang dude, you ride your bike HARD!! 😎 I cant help you with the buzz, is it a vibration buzz, or an electrical buzz? Maybe something isn't grounded correctly? ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can ask Twisted throttle, they know denali like the backs of their hands. 855-255-5550 This one? https://www.twistedthrottle.com/denali-soundbomb-compact-dual-tone-air-horn?acc=7f39f8317fbdb1988ef4c628eba02591 Yamaha FZ-10 Forum Yamaha FZ-07 Forum Yamaha Ténéré 700 Forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugie Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I have the horn fitted to mine and also used the OEM metal bracket. Mine doesn't buzz and points downward. Did you mount yours facing down or forward? If forward could it be that wind is catching it? After a few months it had come loose and i had to use thread lock to prevent it moving (problem resolved) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBB Posted March 22, 2019 Author Share Posted March 22, 2019 Facing down @bugie. Good idea on threadlock, although it does seem to be tight.

DENALI SoundBomb Split Dual-Tone Air Horn | TwistedThrottle.com WWW.TWISTEDTHROTTLE.COM <p><strong>Features:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Sleek all black construction</li> <li>Demands attention that significantly... Have had the Steible on other bikes, but they only lasted for about a year. They started buzzing as the compressor left town. The remote compressor on the Split is still working after 3 years. Water does the dammage on the integrated unit. Does it still sound OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
