Use the auxiliary lights as head lights and use the space where the headlights are to mount a more powerful horn.

I keep seeing everyone mounting aftermarket horns on these bikes and i can't understand why? The horn on my Uly is downright loud...at least twice as loud as any other bike iv'e had

My stock Uly horn was pretty lame, though the one in my M2 rocked. Picked up a Fiam highway blaster off the shelf at local auto parts store.

"Use the auxiliary lights as head lights and use the space where the headlights are to mount a more powerful horn". No need. If you do it right you can, with the odd adjustment, fit a Stebel Nautilus Duel compact air horn behind the screen cover mount thingy. And that is 130 db at one meter, 110 db at two meters I think. Worth ever penny and sounds like God arriving.
