    I see where you went wrong, if you need to get their attention the horn is usually useless, try a boot clad foot in the door panel![/quote]

    Ah, I fitted a pair Stebals to my trusty steed, makes me jump when I press the button so hopefully they'll hear it too 8-)

    I couldn't believe how weedy the BMW horn was. Worse than my VFR one was and that wasn't the best around. The only trouble is, as I don't often use the horn, I've still not got used to where the button is, I'm alright when I have the time to press it but in an emergency I fumble and *blink* *blink* *blink* d@mn LH indicator is there flashing away.

    Got used to the indicators fairly quickly and now prefer, but the horn...still needs practise to hit the button without thinking to hard.
    So... if you hear boxer twin jugging along and a parp! parp! as I come round a tight corner on a country road, that'll be me practising :P
