Default FI or Carbs

I may be asking alot of questions. I haven't had a bike for a while and did not know anything about mechanics then (I'm and electronic person, need a stereo fixed??) Are carbs definately better than FI??? Is FI usually cheaper in the long run???

That is it for now. Thanks.

Carbs are more user friendly while the FI compensates a bit better than carbs if you are running at altitudes. Other than that, It is a matter of preference.

I would never go back to carb unless I was building something for racing purposes. The EFI requires no choke, starts right up in any weather and is very reliable.
