The horn on my electric motorcycle works fine.

I have thought about adding a bell to it as well, because getting a bell rung at you just seems much friendlier than being honked at!

I like when I am out walking that fast-moving bicyclists will ring their bell to let me know they are passing.

Noise (or much less of it) isn't a problem with electrics, other than in a parking lot where there are problems with visibility and people don't expect you to be moving yet.
