just gut feelings based on my somewhat limited exposure, comparatively speaking.

I'd have to agree with the crashworthiness. I've had my Adventure flat on it's side after spills on rocky single tracks, and all the bike had to show for it was scratches on the crash bars, case racks, and some scuffs on the plastic; a little black touch-up paint on the racks and all was well. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for my 54 year old body.
