Here is potentially a good deal on a bike in the Chicagoland area provided the info is accurate...

And it even has a link to GSTWINS. I wonder if they're a member?
This is pretty close to my place. I have a brother in law that lives in Oswego.
I saw this ad last night and I am interested because of the color. Sharp looking bike!
I wish I had that much in my play fund as I could definitely get this thing straightened out. After all, I bought my GS from craigslist, and had no problems getting it roadworthy in about 5 days. (had to wait for parts). ;)
Good luck seller!
