| Harley davidson horn doesn't work. the horn was replaced at 1000 miles. still doesn't work. it sounds like a wounded duck. harley dealer says the horn is fine and that you must be running the engine at 2000 rpm for the horn to work. it worked fine when purchased. i say its a defect in manufacturing. if you need the horn you must be driving at 2000 rpm or better. makes no sense. you must investigate this problem. someone will get hurt. *nm | |||

| No events other than poor workmanship. horn doesn't work. safety is my concern. harley-davidson says there is nothing wrong with my horn. they say that at 2000 rpm when you press the horn button it works. sitting still or idling the horn will not work. they say no one uses the horn at idle or sitting still. if i am sitting at a light and someone turns into my lane i need to warn them. harley says put it in neutral and rev the engine to 2000 rpm then blow the horn. *nm | |||

| Dt*: the contact stated while traveling 50 mph, the hydraulic rear brake did not work at all. the front brake had to be applied to stop the vehicle. there was no warning prior to the braking. the road condition was hard surfaced. also, the second time the front brake lining pad had fractured. the vehicle was taken to the service dealer but was unable to repair due to high volume of work and instead the contact fixed the vehicle. the manufacturer was alerted but was advised that it was not covered under warranty. updated 10/17/2006 - *nm | |||
