So is the RFS really better than the XC4 ?

Ok so I had a 2007 KTM 525, went great can't fault it. Did everything just fine and just like many who read about the woes of the 2008 XC4 I was convinced one would be better off on the RFS. Well then I rode a XC4 and now I'm not so sure, the XC4 feels and sounds smoother than the RFS. The handling and brakes are way better too not to mention the looks. Same goes for the gearbox. So from 2009 on when most issues were addressed can we still say it's not as good as the RFS ? Would like to hear from people who have owned both.
