Default Susuki M50 Vs S50

I have been riding for two seasons (a year & a bit) I have 2500 miles on my bike, so I am not an expert by any means, When I went shopping for a motorcycle I was interested in the M50, and since the M50 was not available, and they offered me a deal I can not refuse on an S50, I ended buying the S50.

I have no complaint regarding the S50, it is a very good starter bike, I can see from the forum that the M50 is more popular. I can still see myself buying it (it was the first passion )

Both Bikes are V-twin 800cc, the M50 is heavier by 100 Ibs, can anybody shed a light on the differences (obviously Suzuki did not make the same bike twice) regarding handling, throttle response, and overall power

Thanks

Note: I did not go for a test ride since I am still getting comfortable to my
own bike
