Larry the parts from a "Japanese Market" Valks all have reverse. Also al 1500 GWs have reverse. However the cost to convert over would probably far exeed the value of your Valk.
If you truely need reverse, consider buying a buying a good used GoldWing 1500.

Just got rid of a 'Wing to get a Valk! I was just wondering if it had been done and what was needed to do it? The 'Wing was too tall for me because of a knee injury.

Like Momz stated... that was OEM for Valks sold within Japan.  I've not heard of anyone  doing a conversion within the U.S.A.
