Beep Beep - Beep Beep YEAH! was created by squints
How do I tell if I have a stock horn or not. The horn on there sounds pretty loud, so I think its an upgrade but how would I be able to tell.
Also, how easy is it to install a second horn. There are two mounts on my frame and it looks like there is space for it. But in terms of wiring, how big of a job is this?

I would suggest the use of a horn relay.
Hot up the relay with fused wire from battery. Wire the horns to the relay and trigger with the horn button.

I had an old horn from a junker, so I put it on my 750 along with the original. I just used longer bolts, with one pointed up and one down. They are wired in parallel, no problems yet, but I don't use it alot...

I think my stock horn is pretty loud.
I didn't used to, but then I fixed the charging system, and with about 14 volts going to it, it's pretty good.
Two horns would be good, but you need to get the right pitch. If they beep at different pitches, then it sounds louder. And more annoying.
