"Face it, when you’re tooling around town on your scooter, the last thing you want is to NOT get noticed at a critical time. It also really stinks when your horn sounds like an angry cricket. It commands no respect at all. Like most mechanically inclined bikers, I went looking at aftermarket horns. Lots of lovely goodies, but nothing really grabbed me until I spotted one of these:

Meet the Wolo Bad Boy model 419.

It’s tiny (5?x5?x3.5?), lightweight (16 oz) and whoa nelly, is it ever loud. About 118db to be precise. That’s about twice as loud as the standard car horn. Installation is simple, uses the same two wires that operate your existing horn (which you will soon after trash)."

I don't own a scooter or plan on it. But I found the product pretty interesting.

... and as a matter of fact I think this might lead to more people getting hit while on their scooters. (less accidental, more intentional.)
