Lady luck finally knocked on my door, Although it needs a little TLC, I put new tires on, the horn is not working, it's getting power to the horn, but still wont work, bought a new horn and still nothing, and I got a instrument cluster on the way, There are some cracks in the fairing, and the windshields got a crack, But it does run good, Hopefully in a few months I have everything fixed, or replaced

ONR of the horn wires gets power all the time.  The horn button completes the ground side of the circuit.  Your problem is probably with the button. 

Hook up the horn "power" wire and run a wire from the other horn connector to ground.  If the horn makes noise, trace the wire back to the switch looking for an open circuit or maybe just dirty contacts on the horn switch.

Welcome Shawn!

I had to go thru a couple of horns before I bought an aftermarket horn from Dennis kirk.com. I bought their loudest horn (PIAA Slimline Sports Horn - 76501 for $69.00).  The tone is a bit weird, but people know I'm there!

Got the horn working, dirty contacts, but the horn isn't that loud, would like it to be a bit louder, Just so that other will know I'm there if the need arises, I check out the sight you posted, thanks to all for the help and tips

you can get more noise out of the standard horn by fitting a relay to it,, should be info in the files section
unless you ride bikes, I mean really ride bikes, then you just won't get it
