That’s apples and oranges man. You gotta feel them and decide which you like better. They are both great but not even close to each other imo.

Test ride both and see which you prefer. You've got quite the wide spread in differences:

- Fixed fairing vs batwing
- M8 vs twin cam
-tourpak vs no tourpak
- seat height will be different between the two

Don't rush into a decision. Try several different bikes before laying out money for something you may not be 100% happy with.
