XT660X where to fit Stebel Magnum Compact horn
 
I bought a Stebel Magnum Compact horn to fit to my '09 XT660X, its fractionally too large to fit where the original horn fits. It actually fits in the space but any vibration it will chafe against the inside of the tank and the top of the radiator. My bike vibrates 'cos its a single, so it will chafe, any one any ideas how or where I can mount the horn. Thanks in anticipation.

I did do some juggling to keep it in the original area...

Thanks for the replies Richard, here is how I've had to do it, I had to mount it sideways as it would not fit in the normal horn position so I had to bend a bit of 1"x1/8" steel strip to mount it, and no its not touching the tank.

grumpy, can you still get full steering lock with it positioned there?

It does hit the rear of the fork leg but not much, however I have changed my mind and I'm going to try and fit it under the rear of the seat
