My horn only gets used once a year by the MOT tester, I've never used it in the 12 years I've owned the bike.
Keep the rubber side down.          Mick

I know myself exactly what is up with my bike at any time, I don't need anyone to tell me.

Which is why the horn hasn't worked since May, I'll fix it before March when the MOT is due.

I find that amusing, some on here want to put very loud horns on their bikes and yours doesn't even work.

It's so rare I'd ever want to use a horn as intended that it doesn't bother me. Besides if anyone gets that close I'd consider the horn then I've not read the road properly & will just shout at them, which works just as well in an open face lid.

The last time I wanted to use my horn was July, when riding in a group in Germany & I had to dive into a petrol station as I'd misjudged what was left in the tank. I tried to beep to get the attention of the bloke in front so he'd know I'd peeled off.

@Hooli
Just pop a viagra into the petrol tank 20 minutes before the MOT you'll be fine  :onya:
