Product Usage Instructions
Installing The Horn Mount
Mounting Location
Step One: Identify the mounting location, which is on the clutch side of the bike on the engine’s cylinder head. There are two vacant M6 tapped holes that will be used for the horn mount.
Installing the Mount
Step Two: Install the M6 Spacers, Horn Mount Bracket, and M6 x 25mm Countersunk Screws in the order shown.
Step Three: Install the SoundBomb Horn with the hardware provided with that kit. It can be helpful to pre-install the Nut & Bolt prior to Step Two.
Note: On Desert X models with Ducati Crash Bars installed, the crossbar between the engine and front wheel may need to be removed to allow access with a standard-length wrench. Using a stubby, ratcheting wrench on the SoundBomb hardware can avoid removing this crossbar.

DENALI products should always be installed by a qualified motorcycle technician. If you are unsure of your ability to properly install a product, please have the product installed by your local motorcycle dealer. DENALI takes no responsibility for damages caused by improper installation. Caution: When installing electronics it is extremely important to pay close attention to how wires are routed, especially when mounting products to the front fender, front forks, or fairing of your motorcycle. Always be sure to turn the handlebars fully left, fully right, and fully compress the suspension to ensure the wires will not bind and have enough slack for your motorcycle to operate properly.
