i think the efi is awesome as long as u dont have a problem,for every 10 problems u hear about how many 1000"s of trouble free miles do u not hear of?trouble shooting the basics is not that difficult most of the time, however on rare ocasions u will get the one that even harleys digital tech wont figure out but i think thats even rarer.
