The Goldwing 1500 is a street cruiser motorcycle manufactured by Honda. The first cycle in the Goldwing series was introduced in the early 1970s. The Goldwing 1500 comes equipped with a factory horn. However, the stock horn is not very loud, which can pose a safety risk on the open highway. The installation of an aftermarket air horn, however, is an option that can make highway travel safer. Installation of an air horn will take approximately 30 minutes.
