crf450 efi vs carb version

[quadfmx]

how much better is the fuel injected crf450 over the carburated version

I speak of engine alone so upgrades in suspension are not to be part of this discussion

I have ridden EFI bikes and the throttle response and operation is very good, much better than a carb. EFI does for bikes what EFI does for cars.

I rode with a guy on a Husaberg a few days ago: Cold start was push a buttom and the engine was running at a fast idle, a few minutes later and the idle slowed down. The bike ran flawless all day. I have a friend with a Montessa 4T and it runs the same, minus the electric start (Montessa is owned by Honda and the bike uses a water cooled 250 Unicam engine).
