Reply #5 - 11/23/13 at 18:17:52 The price isn't bad compared to what the OEM components cost when you buy them from a dealer. I have been told that a motorcycle ECU from a dealer can cost $1200. If you do this I think people would enjoy following your progress. If I get another bike it will have a carb(s). Troubleshooting is much easier.

Reply #9 - 11/24/13 at 04:05:00 Speaking of much further down the road.....the video would have been better with a higher camera angle. If the backfire and afterfire on the Savage is bothering you....this might solve that problem.

Not me.....

I like my carb.
I like keeping it simple enough that I can fix it.

My method for fixing efi is pretty simple...
I just keep replacing $100 - $200 parts one at a time until it's fixed...
It does get pricey though... Huh

...

Most carb repairs cost between 0 - $20...

If the efi goes out on my Hurley... I'm buying a carb... Grin

I see no need to install injector on his Savage . first: this is not a racing bike and of its mechanical heart don't need to squeeze "all the juice". secondly: the engine Savage has a rather small volume and accordingly is quite moderate fuel consumption. no, I'm not quite ready to give 699 bucks for this set.
