You might actually find the GS a bit short - you'd better try one first. I changed from an F650 to an R100GSPD and found that the seat was lower and the footrests higher, hence bent legs, which took a while to get used to. There is a footrest lowering kit available from Touratech, but if you want to fit this, then make sure that you don't have a non-standard side stand fitted (the original will seem quite far forward).
It's something that causes me problems on long stretches, and i'm only 5'7".
