There is a reason that all currently manufactured cars and most bikes have fuel injection. The computer control allows more precise metering of fuel making them more efficient and making it easier to pass ever stricter emissions requirements.

You can love carburetors all you want, but you can't argue that they are better than fuel injection. (unless your definition of better is simpler and cheaper)

That being said. There are 4 motorcycles in my garage and none of them are FI.

So which do I prefer?

I prefer fuel injection for it's efficiency, it's easy of use, it's ability to adjust itself to altitude and dirty air filters.

But I have carbureted bikes because carburetors come on older cheaper motorcycles.
