KTM 950 vs 640

I have done hours of searching and reading on both bikes, but unfortunately in a few weeks one of them will need to be purchased (the purchasing bit is not the unfortunate bit, the indecisiveness is unfortunate)

- obviously the first thing that will be mentioned is what i want it for, and again not making things easy 30% town commuting 30% heavy off road, 30% touring. so an equal balance of needs.

- the 640 dosent have a balancing shaft which must make it hellish on long distance but i have been told that its magical in the ruff stuff.

- then again im a big guy who looks down on a 650 dackar because its too small, am i being a momparra considering a 640 when my size dictates a 950?

im sooooo confused  :-[

this is probably a stupid question that will not generate many responses. but form a newbee to a forum full of veterans. if the cash was in your bank account what would you be looking for???
