Installed the new Denali Split Soundbomb tonight with the separate wiring harness you can get. Used a custom mounting bracket from 3/16 steel by 1 inch. It's otherwise straightforward. The hardest part is snaking the wires down from the battery compartment, and I used a welding rod to show myself the route the wires should take and then a 90 degree pliers to help grab the wires and pull them through. You have to cut them down quite a bit, but the Denali instructions and packaging comes with what you need with new connectors. I did the install that keeps the OEM horn, so you use the provided connectors to connect the new wires to the original so the Denali horn is activated in concert with the OEM horn and switch.
The first photo is of the mounting bracket I made for the compressor part of the horn. I used a U bolt on the frame member and it fit perfectly. Everything that has bare metal is coated in ACF50. All electrical connections are coated in ACF50. The mount in that nook on the R Gaza crash bars worked perfectly for the horn.
Let me tell you right now, that thing is so loud it is astonishing! I had one on my Concours 14 but this sounds even louder. It screams! My wife knows, you aren't riding to make friends with drivers, and if someone threatens you, you blast them loud and long. It's so loud that if you do it with the bike standing still, it hurts your ears even from behind the horn! Thank you Denali.
