I'll take the carb. Sounds better, no 20 miles of wiring and computers, easier to modify and do road side fixes on... I don't know why they put FI on bike anyway.

Well EFI is useful when you know your way around electronic gadgets, I am ok with this, but it just seems that all the control of the ride is taken away by third party gadgets, I really loved getting mad with my screwdriver when carbs where not right lol.

Ah well it looks like I am showing my age, I really love my old school stuff but all is virtually getting banned slowly but surely here in Europe, in Paris you cannot even ride an old school bike in the city anymore. anything before 1999.

Here in the North or bikes can sit for months at a time (though we've had a few awesome Februaries lately). Anyway, after a six week hibernation I walk into the garage, unhook the battery tender turn on the ignition, hit the starter button and the EFI controlled engine starts like it ran 100 miles yesterday. I don't think I'd go back.
