Hawk 250 vs CSC tt250?

Wanted to ask. Is anyone SURE the coming TT250 is really going to be worth the sizable premium over the rps Hawk? Went to look at a hawk the other day and brother bought one. Helluva bike and not just for the money! He paid 1300, period.
As I understand it, CSC is charging 1900 plus a 35.00 doc fee and a 250.00 shipping fee. From looking at the bike vs csc's description, the diff appears to be, 1. Front forks; 2 white color and graphics; some kind of pre assembly and inspection, and the 300 watt stator?
Now I don't know how strong the hawk stator is, but the lights are bright. The front forks are very supple and fine for me at 250. The seat is Very comfortable but looks to b the same.the quality of the welds (at least on his bike) Is impressive and the handling is amazingly good on the trail! The knobby tires are very aggressive on the hawk and handle the hard gravel roads around here just fine. Soooo, is there a compelling reason to wait for the CSC? ( oh, gearing and tires will probably b different too.)motor appears to b the same.
And another thing, my bro's hawk starts instantly(assuming u set the choke for the temp), shifts beautifully, looks great(he got the blue one) runs w/o any carb problems, is very strong down low, and has a Great low rumble to the exhaust! Seems a quality bike all over. Not a motocrosser but great trail bike. A change of gearing necessary if you want to run around at 70 mph. Lot of machine for the money.
I assume CSC will b quality as well. Sooooo,,,,,,,,
