Nothing in it, both share the same problems: overpriced and completely irrelevant.
They may be little in it, but since I suspect that I will end up owning one of them at some point, irrelevance is a personal judgement....

Very similar looking scoots.... but, bmw have had very real quality/longevity issues with their F and G series bikes, I would be wary. Jap scoots however are robust. I know where my money would go.
