You might consider pointing them into the air horn, the extra huff might be
good for half a second in the quarter.
I have mounted two of those "spray can" football game plastic air horns (big
and little) on my ol' two smoker RD400 that allow ME to scare the crap out
of some cager who isn't paying attention and changes lanes into me or turns in
front of me. I plumbed them to one of those aluminum "refill and pump it up
yourself" spray can thingies pumped to 150psi and trigger it with a 12v
solenoid valve like a mini nitrous valve. Only get a couple of long blasts out
of it, but usually that's the most I'd need on one commute and they are WAY
louder than any electric motorcycle horn I've heard.
