Riden,
don´t know what price range you´re look for, but since it´s new/popular model, you may have to either wait a long time for a used one or simply pay the price for it. After 3 months of searching and negotiating, I picked up mine from BMW or Eugene, but couple of (BIG) dealers in Washington state are willing and dealin´ if your price is reasonable. So, far, I really like the new GS, it´s lighter and handling is great for a BIG bike. Unlike my V-Strom, the throttle response is silky smooth even in low gears and none of that "snatching" I get on the VStrom. I´ve done a 400mile loop one day, though the seat can be improved, the bike and I wanted more... :) Also, on fire-roads, the GS is perfectly capable as long as you remember to turn off the ABS!!!
