Very speedy delivery, fitted in 30mins, no need to remove beak & nearside panels. Very loud compared to the pathetic horn fitted by BMW. Great product & service from nippy’s

Bit of a fiddle to fit but got there in the end. Comes with BMW harness adaptor. Better than the original but not illegally loud and doesn't mess with the canbus or need a relay.

Very good horn, great sound and an excellent replacement for the squeaky BMW horn. Makes your presence known without going overboard.

Great new horn to replace the ‘squeaky’ effort supplied by BMW. Really loud but not unpleasantly so…and in this age of careless drivers will definitely get you noticed. Real safety feature

Horn upgrade Dave on Aug 12, 2022

Rating: 5

Purchase to replace the rather poor OEM horn. Although not listed for the RS, I can confirm it does fit. Mounted mine onto an existing mount on left of bike (sitting on bike) behind radiator. Had to extend the rather short wire provided in kit. But no relay’s etc needed. You need to remove fairing on the right hand side to access the wire attached to original horn, very fiddly. Certainly an improvement. Lower and louder sound.

Perfect service, quick delivery, plug and play, no hassle, very easy to upgrade and I am very pleased with the new horn.

After wondering why BMW would choose to site the horn in a place that required the almost complete disassembly of the fairing, I just got on with it! Once you can see the original you can work out how you want to site the noticeably larger replacement. I put a 90 degree bend in the brackets so the opening points down rather than into the fairing. Wiring was a doddle - just plug and play. All back together and it's significantly louder that the original and has much more presence. All in all, a good bit of kit that works well, but fitting will take a little longer and more care and thought that you'd expect for just a replacement horn.

Very tricky to fit to an T Nine T; tank up and reshape the bracket.

Bit of a faff to fit, small hands required. Not sure if its louder but defiantly a deeper sound which hopefully will get peoples attention more than the squeak of the standard horn!

It takes 5 minutes to install. For the BMW r1250gs motorcycle, I shortened the holder and made a new hole so that the horn does not touch the fork.

Recently the tinny horn on the GS started to sound even worse, to the point where my wife’s 700 GS horn was sounding better. Watched many, many how to’s on YouTube and took the plunge. Bought the extra cable as the same time and the entire job took about 10 mins. You do need tiny hands to to fit the nut and bolt and a sleight bend in the supplied metal strip may be needed. Horn is amazing, haven’t used it in anger yet but will definitely get someone’s attention when used.

Went on with very little trouble, I had to take off the side panel but that's just four bolts. I also mounted the horn bracket on the outside of the frame mount rather than bending it, this couple of mil to the right meant the horn doesn't foul the plastic cowl. The horn makes a pleasing and quite tuneful honk at what I'd describe as normal car volume, so it does the job without being over the top.

Great sound from the Denali. It is not a direct fit for the original BMW horn as air ducts for the LC Adventure clash with the Denali, but using the additional brackets in the kit, can be quite easily located without interfering with forks etc.

Not plug and play as described Horn too wide for OEM position and then additional cabling too short to reach Totally fed up with trying to get it to fit so booking into BMW dealer and getting them to do it Can’t review it properly as not even sounded it in anger yet

Be seen and heard. You should be heard with this small but loud horn. Advertisements say twice as loud as the Orem, I can believe it

I thought that this would have been easier to fit to my BMW as it was promoted as a direct replacement. It required several attempts to pack out the bracket to fit in the same area as original.

Quality item, good tone and loud enough. Would have been 5 stars but didn't fit in the original position, I had to move it to beneath the 'tank' cover. Plenty of cable to reach though.

Not a straight swap on an R1250GSA Richard Bishop on May 07, 2020

Rating: 3

Great product, but please note that the Denali Soundbomb Mini horn is NOT a straight swap for the OEM version. The bracket has to be amended, otherwise it will not fit, (which has also been stated in another review in this feed). Please also note that the bracket offered as part number RAG-HMT-07-10700 is not for fitting the Soundbomb Mini to a 1250GSA either. I ended up having to make one myself... rating reduced to reflect this, not the horn itself, which is great.

I bought this item even though it did not say on the web site that it would fit my R1250RT. It does fit even though the horn is wider that the stock item.The mounting bracket has to be bent slightly to offset the horn so that it doesnt touch either fork leg on full lock. Additionally the angle the bracket hangs has to be further towards the front of the bike as this takes the horn body further forward and minimises contact with the fork legs. My horn touches the right fork leg on full left lock very slightly. So to summarise it will fit with tight clearances with a little effort & sounds much better than the stock horn.

Slightly larger than standard horn, the mounting bracket supplied not really long enough so modified existing mount easily enough. Sound definitely better than standard fit & not offensively load. Happily recommend.

Easy fit , simply swap with existing Horn . This gives a deeper tone notifying others of your presence . The usual prompt delivery from Nippy Normans.

Good replacement horn Jonathan Baldock on May 17, 2019

Rating: 4

This horn works well without a relay on my BMW R1250GS, so is genuinely plug and play, and is a great improvement on the original horn. The only problem is that the bracket supplied is too short and the wrong shape (flat) for the horn to fit into the space. I had to make up a special cranked and longer bracket, hence only 4 stars. NN should consider supplying model-specific brackets for this horn. NIPPY NORMANS SAYS Jonathan - if the bracket that we sent was unsuitable go for part number RAG-HMT-07-10400 which is for the VERY small number of bikes with M6 bolts for the OE horn

Nice sound and very esay installing (Really plug and play.) It should not take more than 5 minutes...if the horn would fit in the gap. I had to drill the splint supplied to enlarge the brace and allow the horn not to touch the plastic of the fairing's lower part. But it has been nice to think about a solution.

Great device, dead easy to fit, remove standard horn and fit the bomb in the same place. Much louder than original, a worthwhile upgrade.

The "complete" kit need to be completed by a relay, otherwise the horn works 5 seconds and stop. You turn off the bike and start again, the horn works 5 seconds and stop --> can bus safety. NIPPY NORMANS SAYS Dominique - We have sold many of these with great success. There should be no warning light - if there is there is another problem.
