Just a quick vid that I thought might help, amuse, annoy someone.. :biggrin:



This is the jump starter I'm talking about in the video but you can find copies on eBay for about £9-10.

This is the £4 horn I used.



I know nothing about electrics so can you advise what type/grade of wiring I should be asking for in the shop, and which connector ends?

GC, grab this switch online:

The 1.5mm 25A version of this wire will be fine: (you can get both black and red of just use black and pop some red tape round the rop by the connector to indicate which is which. I prefer to use all black as it looks better on the bike.

These:

or these:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Autocrimps-6-3Mm-Female-Insulated-Connector/dp/B00AIK2XF2/

will connect your wire to the horn.

You can connect one of these between your live/red wire and the positive battery connection if you want to be absolutely safe and by the book:

That should do it if you already have the horn. Good luck!

Will you have the strength to move the thing once you've added all these toys, or is the electric assist going on next?

LOL! I'm not yet of the age where a horn, mini speaker, micro indicators or Windwrap XT fairing are going to cause too many problems, I hope. E-assist would be nice, though.. :biggrin:

Thanks for all that, I'm ordering the connectors shortly.
One more question: where did you get that pouch for the power source?
