Yes, any 12v horn will work with any 12v relay.

Thank you all for your answers.. On he air horns at $40 to $50 that might not be much of a reach depending on how "proud" the salvage yards are.. I will be looking for a luxury car horn, Cadillac or Lincoln for that great 3 note sound..
What brand of air horn should I look for and who carries them?. Dave

I installed these dual horns on my S83. Nice and loud at a decent price!

If you just want loud, the Wolo Bad Boy is available at most parts stores. I love mine.

If you want the road runner horn, it can be purchased but you have to hit the horn button twice to get the Beep Beep.

Personally I would rather have the Wolo.

+1 on the Wolo horn - I just replaced the one I mounted to my wife's Pontiac 8 years ago, which replaced what looked like the same horn that came on my S50.

BTW, are you sure you have a relay? My S50 did not, so I added one to the bracket I mounted the Wolo twin snail-shaped horns with. They sound like a '60s Cadillac or Oldsmobile horn! Without an actual relay, you will burn out the horn switch pretty fast with a high-powered horn.

My horn is on all the time, they are called pipes.

I started my bike once and it made a child cry. It made me laugh---snotty little bastard.
