MotoHorn Install On Harley No Hardwire

- Motohorn / I bought this motohorn and now I'm gonna show you the simple way to install it on your motorcycle. I am going to use the existing horn assembly on the side of the motorcycle to attach this and show you how it works with a simple attachment.
Motor track dual horn system. It comes in black, or it comes in chrome. And what I'm gonna show you first is what comes in the box.
You get two nuts and bolts, and this is for if you want to mount it on the front frame, behind your tire, and then you have the two horns, here's your two horns and you see their chrome.
You have brackets here. There's a little nut back here that you can loosen. And this will turn 360 degrees.
I have 'em set right now to mount on my motorcycle. And you also get two V wire connectors, which makes it real simple to attach this to the existing horn.
The existing horn assembly is right here. Now you have a horn that is at least four times louder than what your existing horn is. And they should be able to hear it now, even if they got their music going, they should be able to hear it.
Now I'm gonna hit the horn again, and it's gonna be loud. There you have your simple installation of the motohorn on the trike. Thank you and have a great day.

You're the first one that's actually made a HOW-TO video and I appreciate it. Lots of guys making videos about these and not showing us anything about how it's actually installed. Kudos to you for taking the time to educate us noobs. :)
you're welcome
This is exactly what MOTOHORN should have on their website!
You were the first to show that one of the tab receiver goes to one tab receiver from the same Y connector goes to the OTHER horn. Mine actually makes noise now. Thanks for taking the time. You saved me return postage!
I read your comment and it helped me understand what I wasn't doing right. I disconnected the v wiring from a single horn and reconnected one of the wires to the other horn and then I had results. Thanks.
Very cool. I have a little dual sport bike that has basically no horn. This looks great and the set up easily. I’m buying after this. Thanks man.
Thanks! A video is so much better than written instructions even for easy jobs!
You’re welcome
Thank you so much for this video. Saved me a lot of time and aggravation. I am not that mechanically inclined but I knew I could tackle this job. My MOTOHORN came with no instructions and your video made it easy!
You are welcome. Glad I could help.
Thanks for the easy-to- follow video! I got it done and I'm by no means a mechanic 🙂 Great job!
You're welcome
Thanks so much for this. I just installed it on my 2023 Ultra limited and without your very simple and direct video I would have been lost. GREAT VIDEO!!!
You’re welcome
You’re welcome Michael
Thank you for doing this! My horns came today and I'll install them this weekend. Thank you again.
You’re welcome
thanks for posting. most helpful for me. appreciate you taking the time to do the video.
Thanks for the video. I got the installation accomplished successfully. It works great.👍🏻
You’re welcome
Very cool - thanks for sharing the 'how to'!
You’re welcome Vito.
Thank you. It looked like an easy install until I tried to attach it to my 03 Heritage. There's just no room.
You’re welcome
Nice simple video :) thank you
You’re welcome
Thanks I just got mines in two days ago and was wondering how I was going to hook them up nice video 🤟
You’re welcome
It does not sound like the air horn sound they use in the commercial. Sure they are louder but it just sounds like a car horn IMO
I agree that it sounds like a car horn, not like in the commercial.
The reason why I didn’t buy one, it’s false advertising
@@ericx7476 it sure is !
Exactly and I commented about that on their Facebook advertisement I told him it was false advertising and they blocked me.😅
You are 100% correct
Thank you, I bought these horns for our SGS and RGS. I thought they replaced the stock horn. I think now I will relocate my horn the the front.
I used a car alarm Horn, when I honk cars around me all slow down thinking it's a cop, I even had a couple cars pull completely out of my lane😂. I showed it to a cop and he laughed. Said as long as I keep both hooked up it's not a problem. Just not the siren alone because it's too close to a cop horn.😊
Great video. I think i can set mine up now. Thank you for making this.
You’re welcome
First your bike looks great. Second thank you for the simple install.
Very helpful. Thanks.
Your welcome
Great video Sir, thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!
You’re welcome
Thanks, very helpful
You’re welcome
Great video
Thanks
You’re welcome
Now I have redo my two
Bike's so all 3 Horns work
Why the horn doesn’t sound like the commercial. I just bought one I may need to send it back
Installed and working without a hitch on Kawasaki Vulcan S 650.
You’re welcome Brad
Thank you jack Nicholson!
you are welcome
I did the same thing but my horn system couldn't handle the load I have to put in the optional relay
Nice thanks
You are welcome
I was about to return mine as there was no horn. After watching your video I had the wiring incorrect. So the good news is I now have the horn working, but the bad news is that it will only blow once. I've tried it in accessory mode and with the engine running. Still blows 1 time & won't repeat if pushed. Also, my horn cover is larger and it prevents me from using all three.
I had the same experience except mine will blow all day with the engine off. Once with the engine running. It requires a relay kit which Motohorn sells for $28. I haven't decided whether to buy the relay kit or return the horns.
@@kievsdad61 Well you can return the horns, to Estonia. Yes, Estonia. The shipping cost will probably be more than the horns. I also needed the relay kit. To bad they are not upfront with us so we know what we are getting into before spending the $$$$. And as a novice, the wiring looks more complicated than I think I can handle. Plus the horns are cheap plastic. I don't agree that they look good, so if I were to install I'd have to buy another style horn covers and hope they can be hidden inside. Anyone interested in buying a set with the relay kit
Just did mine and noticed how close and thin the wires are to the engine. Have you noticed a problem with the engine burning the wires?
Did you not order the Moto horn optional relay to use with three horns? I have a 2008 Electra Glide and they told me that I needed to order the relay if I wanted to run three horns and have them be loud.
No, I didn’t order the relay. My horns are loud. When I ordered them nothing was said about any relay.
Ran into a problem on my stock wiring. I only have 2 female terminals for the stock horn so i can't plug the new ones into it. Where can i get the connectors you have that will allow me to plug the stock horn and dual horns together to complete my circuit?
Did you use the 2 y connectors and plug each end into your existing horn and see if it works. Shouldn’t matter and if done the way I did it your horn should work.
I installed mine like that and the vibration cracked the thin straps they give you. Had to remove them on the side of the road. Plus the horns were touching the stock horn cover and making clanging noise.
Sorry to hear about what happened to you.
Have a 2018 Road Glide Special. Must have a circuit breaker cause it'll beep for half a second then nothing unless you turn the bike off and on again.
Its happened the same to me, so what did you do to fix the issues!?
Still a little hesitant on buying this upgrade. I feel like Motohorn HEAVILY exaggerates how loud their horns are. When they first came out with their trumpet / train style horn, their ads made it sound like a full-blown train horn, but then my buddy bought it for his Indian and after hooking it up, it was definitely louder than his stock horn, but nowhere near as loud as Motohorn's advertisement
Did you cross the wire wires on the second, right side, horn? Did the Y ends go to a different side on the second horn ie: forward connector on front horn to rear connector on rear horn and rear connector of fwd horn to front connector on rear horn? Couldn't tell if the Y's went to different locations on the second horn or if you connected front connector to front connector and rear to rear. One would be a series connection, the other parallel.
It was all a direct connect
@@dumbassleather4116 That's a given. Doesn't answer how series or parallel connection of the Y legs. Maybe it really doesn't matter or maybe you got lucky.
Please don’t try to complicate it. It’s a straight hook up.
Does this work for all the Moto horns if you possibly know cause I have the Chrome version Longhorn like the one that actually looks like a train horn and wanted to make sure before I make myself feel stupid trying to put something on wrong 😂
Don’t know. If the v wire system looks the same it may. Watch my video and look at your wiring, if it’s the same try it.
I just bought the relay kit they suggested to use with the three-horned set up with the stockhorn did you do that as well???
No, I didn’t. Just did a simple install
@@dumbassleather4116 well crap I read their website and they said I was going to need their relay set to use all three horns to make it nice and loud.... I guess I fell for it Hook line & sinker....
@@chadhamann8315 I didn't and haven't had any problems. I guess some people have had problems, so they bought the relay.
What I need is a how to install factory horn 😂 my 2018 road glide special horn was removed.. By previous owner. I need to find the wires for the horn or how to wiring it back 😂
Hooked it up as you showed and it worked great for a while but after about the third or fourth time I blew the horn, a fuse blew and I lost the horns, directionals, and the spotlights. Any thoughts on how to correct this without hardwiring?
So wait on the Y connector one wire goes to each of the horns not the same horn?
Also how did you hide the wire?
2 wire connectors. Take first one. One end to one horn, the other end to the other horn. Same process for the other connector. Then the end of one connector under the existing horn and the end of the other connector under the existing horn. This closes the circuit. Horns work. My wires are not hidden.
What size fuse do you have on your bike? 10a 15a?
15a
Looks simple, have you blown a fuse yet while using it? Most say to use a relay, I'm going to install mine this weekend or so.
Nice video btw!🤘
I didn't use a relay.. I haven't had any problems, because I don't use it that much. Thanks
Your stock horn button is not rated for the current your drawing, you need a 10 amp load relay…
Don’t buy a MotoHorn. If it doesn’t fit and you want to return it, they require you to ship it to Estonia. In Europe. Which costs more than the horn. They don’t tell you this up front or anywhere on their website. Deceptive business practices. They ship you the product from Oregon but claim you can’t return it there. Not a reputable company.
Why would you not let us hear it?
I did a little beep. You just need to listen.
At 3:10 - "I'm going to hit the horns and it's going to be loud"
Their advertisement uses the air horn version #2 SOUND for the sound these are supposed to give in their advertisements. I like the horn but don’t get duped into believing that BullSh$t
Too bad it’s cheap plastic
Agree. Bought the "chrome" and didn't realize it's plastic. To me it looks cheap. I could have returned it, but postage to ESTONIA?? Be nice if they were upfront about that. I wouldn't have purchased it.
