I don't think either bike has a weak clutch but more down to the rider and how hard you drive the bike, I have never had to replace the clutch on any bike. My GS has now done 170,000 miles on the original and that bike has taken me many places and in most conditions, I have met riders of Japanese bikes with similar high mileage on them who have had the same long life.
If you do ride your bike hard and expect to wear out a clutch it would be a good idea to carry spare plates.
