They are super touring bikes, but in my opinion, unless it's already been done, you'll want to change out the gearing. Even today, they still come new with gearing that is a little on the high side for serious touring.
Are you really comparing a modern bike with a bike made almost 20 years ago that had the same name?

That's like comparing a general lee dodge charger and a cop car dodge charger.
