Only had the chance to sit on the bikes but I was able to make one very important decision. Between the two I would have to take (drum roll please...) the ST!
I'm 6'2" and I felt the FJR was a tad small. I also wasn't comfortable with the forward lean.
Then drove over to the Honda dealer and sat on the ST. It felt like it was custom made for me.
Now comes the saving up part.

Been in the same shoes there mate..:D

Found the same thing. At 6'5" the ST was just a tad more comfy for me also.

I would like to ride an FJR someday though just to compare notes. :D
My feeling is the FJR maybe a bit more "spirited" when you want to flog it around a bit.

I too felt the FJR was a bit small for me and my wife (neither of us are large people).

The Fjr's feel really small in size. Almost like a 750.
