Re: GL-1500I 1992 return
I think you are asking if the GL1500 Interstate has reverse. The answer is no, it did not come with the reverse.
Only the Aspencade and SE models have reverse.

Re: GL-1500I 1992 return
No, My 92 Interstate has no reverse, no cruise control, and radio without cassette player, and the windscreen is non adjustable.
Those who say it cannot be done should try not to interrupt those who are doing it.

Re: GL-1500I 1992 return
Is it possible to add reverse gear or exchange the whole transmission? Would GL 1500SE 1998 transmission fit on GL 1500I 1992? What is aproximatelly price of complete transmission?

Re: GL-1500I 1992 return
Possible, but not practical. The easiest and probably most economical way to get reverse, is to sell the Interstate and buy an Aspencade or SE.
The next would be to just buy a used engine complete. You would then have to add all the bits that are on the bike, From what I've seen most of the wiring is in place, but none of the electrical items used for reverse. Without a parts bike it will get expensive to acquire all the parts. So buying a crashed Aspencade or SE to get the engine and other parts from would be a good idea.
And last is to not only do all of that, but also to open the engine and install the internal components. Some machining will most likely be required as well. The cost to have all that done by a shop would likely exceed the value of the bike several times over.

And no low fuel warning light on the Interstate either.

No LCD display, and no on-board air for the suspension, either.

Re: GL-1500I 1992 return
GL1500I was the “not rich” man’s entry level GoldWing. As mentioned, no too many options at purchase, but mine at least has a CB, but I use BlueTooth, so no benefit for me.
Once I learned that, I was able to become more confident and less fearful of being an aggressive learner on her. I was no longer worried about expensive options I didn’t have
