What? I thought you are one of the most mileage guys just to listen your "Meistershit" on the road! So you listen to it in the garage then?

RaptorKTM · 06-15-2012, 07:34 PM

maybe the horn stopped due to lack of use then

Those guys over in warranty will help put some miles on while they test that horn in motion!

Just kidding,mine has a problem but I do t want to take it in and leave it.
Maybe I'll leave the gopro aimed at the dash and tell them they must turn it on when they test drive . The mileage will record and if it doesn't match up, I'm sending them your way for some pounding.

You must have gotten the California edition. People hardly use their horns here. The few times I've used my horn to let people know, I'm here, hey don't hit me please, I've gotten weird looks or the bird. I'm just used to Chicago where it gets used a lot!

Read the fucking manual for what? You must not have intended to respond directly to my post because that makes no fucking sense. lol

The horn is fine, the exhaust is SO LOUD you cant hear it

. Fix the exhaust

Could be merely a blown fuse: check fuses 57 (15Amp - blue) and 79 (30Amp - green).

Check the fuse box picture and diagram below (a link to those pictures also features in the Manuals Sticky: http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showp...82&postcount=1)

In the meantime: drive with open windows and shout loud.

Metak, I'm in California ...... Do our cars have a horn? ; )

I heard a rumor that it has turn signals too but I think it's illegal in Cal to use them! I only see non-Cali people use them.
