Providing a clear 100db sound, it effectively enhances rider presence in traffic while maintaining a discreet profile on your bike.

FAQs
Is this horn compatible with all motorcycles?
It is a universal unit designed for 12V systems. However, some motorcycles use specific plug-and-play connectors that may require a simple wire splice to adapt to this universal horn.
Does this horn require a relay?
If you are replacing an existing horn, you can typically use the original wiring circuit without a relay. If you are adding a horn to a bike that didn't have one, a relay is highly recommended.
What is the diameter of this horn?
The Bike-It Universal Horn features a compact 70mm diameter.
Is the horn waterproof?
It is designed to be weather-resistant for motorcycle use, but it is best mounted in a position that minimizes direct water spray.
Can I mount this on a 6V system?
No, this unit is specifically engineered for 12V electrical systems and will not function correctly on a 6V system.
Troubleshooting
The horn makes no sound when the button is pressed
Check the fuse in the motorcycle's horn circuit and ensure the wiring connections to the horn terminals are secure and not corroded.
The sound is weak or muffled
Verify that the horn is not obstructed by debris or components and ensure that the mounting bracket is not causing excessive damping of the alloy casing.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Compact size fits easily in restricted mounting areas
- Clear 100db sound improves road safety
- Durable alloy finish resists corrosion
- Straightforward 12V wiring requirements
Cons
- May require custom wiring or bracket adjustment for some models
- Not intended for heavy-duty commercial or industrial use
- Lacks a weather-protective grill compared to some OEM units
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation involves securing the horn to a suitable mounting point on the frame or fairing bracket. Ensure the metal casing has a solid ground connection if your bike's system requires it.
- Preparation: Disconnect the negative battery terminal before beginning work.
- Mounting: Use the existing mounting point or a universal bracket to secure the horn, ensuring it is positioned to allow sound waves to project forward.
- Wiring: Connect the two terminals to your motorcycle's existing horn circuit. Polarity is generally not an issue for simple mechanical horns.
- Testing: Reconnect the battery and press the horn button to verify operation.
To ensure longevity, periodically inspect the mounting bolt to ensure it hasn't vibrated loose. If you ride in wet or muddy conditions, occasionally wipe the horn surface to prevent debris buildup near the sound aperture.
