Probably you wont see anything till late Oct or November.
I don't think there are any new models being introduced for 2015..... so going for the previous year models for their savings would be the better choice, and that should be in Feb 2015 onwards.
The Buddy horn like the "Wolo" is a motor driven air horn and I think it draws more current than the stock squeaker so that's why the 12 gage wire and fuse direct to the battery and the relay. Hate to hear you had burned wires by hooking it directly!

Likescooten, that horn went in the top, machine left corner of the leg shield. Ya gotta remove the front cover anyway to get at the wimpy OEM horn anyway. I used the relay supplied with the Wolo horn and fished a #12 red wire to the battery with a fuse. You got the Buddy horn from ebay so it probably did not come with a relay. No problem since any auto parts store has these 12 volt relays by the bushel. What YOU gotta do is hook the original horn wires directly to the relay coil. Don't worry the circuit diagram is molded into the relay box. The "hot"wire to the horn go to the Normally Open (NO) contacts on the relay and then to the horn. The other wire to the horn goes to ground. All these connections are 1/4" push-on even from Taiwan! Post if you have problems.

Welcome Likescooten.
For me, If I bought the 50th Anniversary model, I'd leave it stock.
Great looking job on the seat. Did you do it yourself?
