After reading some scary stories on http://www.klrworld.com/forums about the linkages not being greased and/or the poor state of them coming straight out of the factory, I thought it wise to double check all the bolts. The bolts are extremely tight so be careful undoing them if you do not have good quality sockets. The main bolts need to be tightened back up to 98nm.
This is the state of my 2010 KLR which is 4 weeks old and only has 1080km on the clock! I strongly recommend that anyone with a KLR check their linkages, clean the bolts up and reassemble with good quality water proof grease.
With a claimed 139dB it seemed the way to go. After install and testing- wow is this thing loud. I have no way of measuring just how loud, but rest assured you will get noticed on the road when using it. Here is the link to the product; http://www.twistedthrottle.com/trade/productview/2137/653/
Installing on the KLR using the Twisted Throttle mount kit made it exceptionally easy. There was a slight issue at first with the holes for the horn mount and the Twisted Throttle bracket did not line up, however with a little adjustment this was quickly overcome.
The only part requiring any real thought was the wiring. I wired the existing horn into the relay and made up the following leads; to go from the battery to the relay with using the existing fuse box, to go from the relay to the horn and horn to earth/frame. The original horn is no longer connected and could be removed if I wish to do so.
Overall, I am very impressed with this little mod.
