I might look into replacing my horn. I know the FIAMM Freeway Blaster produce 130dB and the Stebel Nautilus 139dB. Keep in mind that the sound energy doubles for every 3dB so 139dB is 8 times the energy of 130dB.

I also saw this train/diesel horn which could be cool! Although people then wouldn't expect a motorcycle...

There is not a db limit on horns in the US. There are specific places that they do not want you go use your horn. Mainly cities. As for the 66070 (TRAIN/DIESEL HORN) yes too big and not enough db.
