It doesn't give me the horn at that price...£10 is more like it...Ian:white_frowning_face:

Yes Ian, the start price is a bit ridiculous, but it's the bulb material that has got me curious. Ron

Presumably the bulb has a spring inside so that it acts as a bellows? In that case, would it have had a rubber bladder inside (now defunct) that the cloth covered? I doubt the wartime story, and it looks more like a bicycle horn.

The only bulb horn that I've seen documented in connection with WD motorcycles is the Lucas 60.V specified for Egypt and Malta. This one looks to have the brand name 'Omen'. The registered design number could be followed up and may well explain what and why.

It may well be wartime, but no reason to suppose that it's WD.

The bulb horns were fitted to Fleas, ML's and some of the experimental bikes that didn't have a battery. Ron

Ah yes, forgot about those...but I stand by my comment that I haven't seen documentation relating to them ;-)
