I realise this topic hasn't been posted into for >6 months, but...
I think that the comparison needed to really be done riding the bikes back to back, for substantially longer periods of time (hours rather than minutes) with many more miles/kilometres over a much more broader range of riding surfaces. One would also need to use all the different settings and electronic aids to get a real world sense of both the bikes true abilities, and more importantly a feel for just how easy it is to use such aids. Only then will you get a sense of what bikes suits your riding sensibilities and riding style.
Funny thing is though that any one of these bikes and others in the category will alter and shape ones riding experience. As an example...
Like a Porsche 944 turbo I was lucky enough to have offered to me to test drive for 3-4 days many years ago, I was looking at purchasing at a dealership in NZ. I stepped out of my Toyota 4x4 (one of 5 I had that I drove as intended on all manner of surfaces at the time, aside from several motorcycles and a 1967 Pontiac Parisienne 4 door pillarless), into that sweet Porsche and completed some several thousand kilometres driving all around the North island of NZ. I was fortunate that as a firefighter at the time, I had 4 days off (4-on, 4-off). I really like that car and was seriously tempted to buy it, hence the long term test drive, from Continental Cars in Newmarket (high end care dealer). Two discoveries I made in that time with the 944 though, were two-fold. One was the deceptively fast speed the 944 could reach (pulled out from behind a queue of traffic travelling East between New Plymouth towards Hamilton (at the time two provincial towns in NZ), and passed the dozen vehicles as though they weren't moving at all, then after several minutes and using my 11 second mirror scan technique noted a swiftly approaching police car in the rear view mirror of the 944. Checking my speed I was well over the open road speed limit by some 40%. The police vehicle was some distance back (was not using lights or siren) so I slowed in a controlled and deliberate fashion, as the police vehicle got closer and closer over the span of several minutes. It was evident that the police officer(s) inside the vehicle had seen me at some point, although I had not seen them (and my radar detector had not triggered). Eventually the police vehicle was behind the 944 and continued to stay there for what seemed like an eternity. I by then was driving some 10-15% above the limit, I mean I was being realistic about it all, I was in a 944 turbo, so had to keep it real. I was expecting to be lit up at any moment, but that moment never came. Eventually the road widened into a bi-directional two lane with passing lanes in each direction, where over a minute or two, the police vehicle pulled alongside, stayed with me for a brief time before pulling ahead. By then my heart rate was back down to around normal. That was the first realisation that this sweet ride, a real drivers car, was also a fast way to a lost license. Strike one.
The second realisation I had early on, was my realisation that all the off road tracks and less than ideal roads that I would have not had any second thoughts about had I been in one of my 4x4's, were suddenly off limits. That for me was the biggest kicker. Fast forward to today and my life path now, and I feel similarly with my maxi scooters I really luv riding (2 Burgman Executive 650's (2003 & 2007), and Jetmax). Great for most of my riding, most of the time, but do limit my ability to go places the S10/XT12 can. Strike two.
Ironically the 944 was very economical on that trip, but I could exactly roll out my sleeping bag in the back of it like I could one of my 4x4, nor explore any hidden, potential camp sites off road. Strike three.
The only way to really know something/someone, is spend time with it/them.
Just sayin...
