6 volt battery 12 volt horn, help!

[tules]

I'm in the process of getting my dirtbike inspected. I have everything I need to make it legal in my state except the horn. It has a horn but it's bad. The bike has a 6 volt battery/power supply and I'm having trouble finding a 6v horn. Anybody know what would happen if I hooked a 12v horn in place of the old 6 volt one?
All I'm worried about is passing inspection. Anybody know the best way for me to get a working horn on it asap? The inspector said it has to be wired to the battery. (not 9v battery) :bang:

6 volt system+ 12 volt horn; it will be very weak if it works at all. go get a 6v horn off an OLD VW bug or aircooled. many older (60s back) bikes had 6v systems as well, also check mopeds. I dont know about your state but here in va a simple squeezy type bicycle horn passes state inspection. :bang:

there are a bunch of 6v horns on Egay...

Can you tape one of those little air horns to the handlebars just to get through inspection????

No, the guy said it has to be wired to the battery :(
