Don't know about a Vetter, J.M.,  but for the Yamaha had to rearrange wiring
inside headlight bucket as head light and bucket were removed and replaced. 

Loudest horns I was able to find are and install were Fiam, 132 db from JC
Whitney, although I think Aerostich tis advertising 135 db ones.  Both
require a relay to avoid smoking your horn switch.

Any caveats I need to be aware of? I know I may have to rearrange the
mounting point for the higway bars to get the faring mount on, but was
wondering if the instrumentation is going to be a problem if I choose to try
and mount a VetterSound cage up there. Also, any wiring bugaboos I need to
be mindful of?

Also, anyone have any recommendations for a replacement horn for the OEM?
I've been seriously contemplating an air horn, since I'm still running
factory pipes at the moment.
