Michael having what y'all calling a Johnny Cash bike is ok. Heck that's how my bike came together but it cost more than a dime. But there were some great trips linked to my bike.

Mike you don't want to find a klaxon horn like that. I bought one about a year ago for $60.00. Now I have not see one under$180.00+. Good luck finding one.

Are the horns just miniature versions on the ones used by model T's & other horseless carriages?  The pictures I've seen look the same.

Yes they sound and function the same as the the larger ones. I ran a search for klaxon horn on ebay today and found several . Its all about how much you can afford.

The horn came mounted on Johnny. The only thing I have done to it is remove the tank and carb for cleaning. Total restoration will be started this summer.  Michael c
