WOW......what a rant. Balanced mix of opionion wrapped up as fact, ignorance and stupidity. Congratulations.Originally posted by quadboy-55
yeah, i have my fingers crossed for a carb in 2010 too! they'll prolly make a new S.E model. like the balck and blue last year, and the really hot orange white 09.
EFI is great... on a car, but not on a quad. im regestered on another site too, LT-********, and the EFI's they put in quads WONT adjust for altitude or air pressure, its just a carburator with a ton of wires and an injector. (not exactly but you know what i mean) true, they do have and o2 sensor but thats it, it doesnt adjust much. i have had quite a few problems with the ''quads of tommorow'' and there EFI, wich is why im hoping to swich back on to a Honda, built like a brick and i hope it stays that way.
Honda probably knows that EFI's are no good on a quad and thats why they, like KTM are keeping a carb.
hell, i think adjusting a carb is way easier than EFI. jet and go. i hate plugging in a lap-top. and downloads never are acurate. $350 for a dyno and $350 for a controller. or 10 bucks for jets.
heres what happened to my LT-R not too long ago.
broke 3rd gear, starter broke, all electrical connections started smoking.
thats enough to swich any one back to a carb and kicker anyday!!
