Before you pull out, please look for me.

By mike

I’d consider myself to be a careful bike rider. I’d also consider myself to be safety-conscious, in that I always gear up, I always wear a bright yellow jacket, I’ve got dual H4 headlights up front, and I assume that I’m pretty much invisible to anyone on the road. Still, it does not come as a surprise that anyone might pull out in front of me without yielding. And still doesn’t fail to surprise me that maybe the stock ’strom horn is a little weak for those times when it happens. So I’m upping the defenses in the arms race:

It’s the Stebel Nautilus 139dB motorcycle horn.

With the Stebel air horn, there’s no doubt that people can hear me. When I tried them outside of TwistedThrottle.com’s warehouse, everyone in the warehouse (as well as two of our neighbors) came outside to see what was going on. These horns are really freakin’ LOUD. Michael, our warehouse manager, affectionately calls these horns “People Deafeners”.

Also fits ATVs, scooters, cars, trucks, freight trains, airplanes, steamships, and any other vehicles equipped with 12-volt power.

There’s just no polite way to say hello using this horn. And that’s why I like it.

“People deafeners.” Awesome.
