Great product and it is really loud. Sounds like a train coming up the road now as opposed to the timid beep beep of the standard horn.

great product, fitted in the gap in front of battery due to having no abs on my bike, still sounds like a truck horn, the securing bolt hole could be better though

Wakes doxy cagers and pedestrians alike, highly recommended.
Manufactured exclusively for Nippy Normans to our own design. The 'MSX' stands for Motorcycle Specific Xtreme - this is a horn designed specially for the limited space on a modern motorcyle and with features that will withstand the harsh outdoor environment encountered on a motorcyle. This is not a car horn !
Now you can at last be heard!
Latest version of the aclaimed Nautilus dual-tone air horn . Loud enough to convince other drivers that there's a derailed freight train barrelling down on them. Don't press the horn button in the garage, it hurts! At 139dB you can hear it on the other side of town.

Fitment:
We have sold these for most BM's - the horn can usually go in place of the original, and as an example on the R1150GS it goes in the same place, using the same bracket, but is easier to fit with the tank off. It will clear the fork tubes.
Suitable for:
R1100GS
R1150GS
R1200GS all years including mark 2 versions
R1200ADVENTURE all years including mark 2 versions
For R1200GS/Adventure 08 on models the horn can be fitted under the tank where there is a charcoal filter in some markets
R1100S
R850R/1100R/1150R
R1100RT/1150RS/RT
K1200RS/GT and most early BMW's.
For the F800GS, R1200GS, R1200RT, R1200ST, K1200S and K1200R and all modern Can Bus wired BMW's use the Magnum horns. .
Most larger Japanese touring bikes.

FITTING THE NAUTILUS TO THE R1200GS
(This was contributed and we have not verified the fitment BUT the Nautilus is TWICE as loud as the Magnum so if you can make it fit....)
Description supplied by AG London
"The installation is rather straight-forward once you get your head around
the fact that there IS in fact enough clearance for the horn using the OEM
horn location. The OEM metal mounting strip is a bit wobbly but in six weeks
and 1,500m nothing has moved. I might fabricate a stronger one when I find
the time.
The only tricky bit was the CANBUS connection to the horn: it IS polarity
sensitive, so if it only quacks like a sick duck rather than sounding like a
fog horn, the wires to the horn need to be swapped.
I used a 20amp fuse and fixed the relay to the frame with a cable tie. No
wires were cut and I used connectors where necessary so the bike can easily
be returned to its original condition. "
For modern Triumphs use the Magnum single packs in either black or chrome.
