I ask this because EFI 'IS' the way to go. Now notice I did not say 'stock' EFI ...

With the modern EFI tuners, you can change virtually everything to match your riding style and modifications to the bike.

For every complaint of an EFI bike not running properly, I can dig up a complaint of a carb not idling, flat spots, flooding, loading up and on and on. It doesn't make sense to me.
Yeah, and we can find a fix with a screwdriver, a 2.00 part or a good cleaning.

And all the while, we listen to you EFI guys whining about "running hot", "where can I buy" and "who knows what's wrong with my" ... But we never hear from anyone - "I'm too stupid to work a choke cable"

And I guess that's why NASCAR teams are all screaming for EFI on their cars, Top Fuel guys want it too for more power - yeah right .

"modern EFI" ? so tell us how to adapt that to our "Evo Classics" I'll try anything once -- twice if it hurts bad enough!

nothing personal toward either of you ................

hahahah too many wanna be rubs on here who dont wanna admit that they dont know how to tune a carb, so they max out their credit cards on EFI parts and when they go broke my tax dollars have to pay for it

wonderful world we live in huh?

you wonder how some people make it so far.......

(oh yeah, i work on EFI everyday for a living, can't accuse me of not knowing how to use it)
