Gladius SFV 650

Salut Gladius riders

I want to replace my stock horn on my Suzuki Gladius with twins. So I have a couple of questions. So tks in advance to any answers.

1) Do I need a relay that the existing wiring goes to before splitting to the two horns?

2) Will the two horns work with no relay and just splitting the wiring to each from the main existing wiring?

3) Do the twin horns need to go straight to battery with its own new wiring and forgetting the old wiring?

4) Will two horns fit in the existing space for the single one if using same styled horn shape as shown below?

5) Has anyone got a SIMPLE wiring diagram that a non-electrical person like myself can follow!

5) Any further info would be appreciated.

Tks....Ride Safe

Hi,

There is no relay to feed the horn on standard Gladius.
I am not sure the wiring harness will support to feed 2 horns.
So, it would be better to feed double horns with a relay.
Without relay solution should work but how long ??
The risk is to weld horn button or wiring harness ....
For the wiring diagram, I have just the one in the Suzuki service manual and it seems easy to read and understand.
Have you got it ??
If you want it, send me a MP ...
Where are you from ??

Cheers !!

Yes I know there is no relay on standard Gladius and I think you maybe right that the wiring harness will not support twin horns, hence my post here for information.

I haven't got the standard wiring diagram but I'm sure it would be helpful.

I'm British but living in the Philippines. You can search my NEW MEMBER post that will give you information and photos on my bike. Also I've already posted a few articles here in the ACCESSORIES section for a new saddle, levers and grips. Please read them if you wish.

Send me a MP with your e'mail address and I will send you the file back.

Cheers

Hi Riders

I've finally fitted a set of Denso twin horns. The reason for using these compared to other makes - Bosche, Hella - was the limited room between the radiator, tank and frame made it not practical to have larger ones. The Denso are slightly smaller diameter than the original horn size.

I used Sid Squids (SFV.org member in UK) diagram as a base to go from. It was very helpful. With a metre of wire, relay and connectors it went fine.



One horn was placed in the original position. The second I attached to the radiator side bolt, (with a bracket) facing the horn inwards. The relay was attached to the frame with a small nylock strap. Keeping everything firm and in place. Finally the fuse connector was attached close to the battery, as advised by Sid Squid.

Once everything was in place and connected I turned the key and pressed the horn. Out came a much louder and stronger sound than the stock horn. Hopefully this will help riding through traffic here in the Philippines.

Thanks to the members who gave me advice. Its appreciated. Check out the sound on this very short YouTube video link below.

Tks....Ride Safe
