i love efi with a thundermax. i also drove a carb 05 sportster and a 06 efi and the same bike has better throttle response and smoother power curve with efi

Yes very true with the better power curve with the EFI but with EFI you always need to take it to a shop if something goes wrong. With a Carb you can tweak it yourself.
If you are a DIYer I would go with the carbed bike...I have driven nothing but carbed bikes so I cant bag on EFI...I just know when I want to mess with the bike its simple and through the time I have gotten to "know" my bike better. If you just want to jump on and go and let the dealer do all the work then maybe the 05 is better for you...
