Their both good bikes, if slightly under powered and if travelling solo are a good choice. If you intend to ride alot off road then obviously the Dakar would be the better choice because of the extra ground clearance. However, the early production of the GS in the UK, both the standard and Dakar version, had a couple of glitches which were covered up by BMW mainly concerning the fuel injection. Some bikes would cut out and refuse to start leaving the rider stranded. I know, I had one and it was a nightmare. BMW refunded my money and I went elsewhere. Stay clear of the first years production models and you should be fine.
