    Does anyone here know if it is normal that the sound on my brand new strada GLX sounds like a duck being chocked? the sound doesn't fit the size of the truck at all.

    Sorry, ma'am, but I have never seen or heard a duck being choked, so I can't compare. Besides, I cannot stand to choke a duck just to hear it out and compare. I'm sort of an animal rights advocate and am against cruelty to animals.

    Seriously, if you're referring to the tweet-tweet sound of the stock strada horn, that really is how it sounds.

    One of the first things we advise new strada owners is to upgrade their horns to a better sounding one. As they say, get the meanest and baddest horn around. One that will match our robust stradas

    Yung mga naka-single trumpet ("potpot") pero attached to a portable hand-pump bicycle tire inflator?

    Napatabi yung pedicab pagbusina ko pero sinagot din ako ng airhorn nya.

    Mahina talaga busina ng Strada GLX. Isa lang kasi siya then yung maliit pa.

    Kahit bike, hindi tumatabi pag binu-businahan ko. Ngayon nagpalit ako to Bosch Europa's, Earf*cked mga Jeeps sa akin! lol

    Kailangan talaga palitan ng malakas na busina ang Strada natin. Fiamm SNFL, Fiamm Gran Turismo, Stebel GP3 or GP2, Bosch Europa, Roots Megasonic, dalawang Hella Supertones, dalawang Mitsuba, dalawang Stebel Magnum, dalawang Seger horns, or isang tunay na train horn.

    I'm using only one set of Stebel GP2 with the shorter horn firing to the front, the longer horn firing downwards, gauge-12 wires, cable ties sa hose fittings (for leak free connections), the supplied Stebel 30-amp relay, and a 30-amp inline fuse. Pwedeng babaran ng busina (tried continuous 6-seconds sa highway).

Strada GLX M/T horn question
