Not so much louder than the sock Fury horn but definately more respectable and penetrating. With the excellent low tone horn on the Fury all that I needed was to add a high tone horn for reciprocal respect from cagers.
The air horns posted previously (WOLO & Stebel) are claimed to be TWICE AS LOUD  . Although somewhat subjective I would say it is a very legitimate claim as witnessed on a few friends' bikes. Word of warning, do not test in a enclosed space like your garage  . |
Our hearing is logarithmic so what we perceive as twice as loud is actually 10dB louder. Twice the power is only 3dB louder.
