Suzuki TU250X vs CSC SG250

Ok so the biggest benefit of paying extra cash for a Japanese bike is because of its reliability.

There is no doubt that Chinese bikes have come a long way, and I found this quote from CSC.

“People questioned the quality and reliability of a Chinese motorcycle,” Seidner said. “That perception is no longer an issue for us."

Are Chinese motorcyles (CSC SG250 in particular) just as reliable as Suzuki TU250X?

I am comparing these two bikes because CSC SG250 and Suzuki TU250X share so many things in common.

If you look at the style, they are very similar.
Engine displacement, horse power, torque, acceleration, top speed, if you look at the spec sheet and compare them side by side, they are VERY SIMILAR.

The only thing that's not similar is the price.
CSC SG250 = $1,995
Suzuki TU250X = $4,599

Do you think the TU250X is still worth more than double of CSC SG250?
Because if CSC SG250 is indeed, just as reliable as TU250X, that kinda defeats the purpose of getting a Japanese bike.
