Are you sold on EFI ??

[AMAC1680]

I love the EFI on my DT300, love it.

My 2010 Cali Classic was put to sleep in a freezing NJ shore garage since last October. On Saturday I turned the key hit the starter and ......

The Batt objected but the scoot did start and then took me off into the pines.

Whatever works for ya.

I have owned many bikes, mostly with carbs.  I have had some carb problems, some due to ethanol gas and also a couple of older bikes had rubber diaphrams go bad and need replacing.

My super 8 has a carb and has given me no problems even in 20 degree temps.  It fires right up and I can immediately ride it away.  I do ride it nearly every day, year round.  I'm not sure how it would do If I let it sit.

I'd prefer EFI on my future bikes but a carb would not be a deal breaker for me.

If I were in a rural setting or in a situation where I found myself being poor, I'd want a carb, I can service it myself and the cost for the extra fuel burn isn't going to stop me from operating.

In any normal situation I prefer going EFI but as stated if the right option came along (my 09 peoples 200 with 700+ mile in 011 for $1,600) I'd grab the carb and not look back.

Hey AMAC, Wait a minute?!....I always thought NJ was the state west of NYC.
NJ has a shore?! (remember, I'm in Ohio ....flat here - so I can't see the east coast even from my roof)
The Cali Classic picture I always assumed was in front of a house on the Florida coast. Are you sure you're in NJ? Ask a neighbor.....I bet you & your Classic are in Florida.
See, this same thing happened to me once. I was hitch hiking out west - was picked up by a station wagon full of Navajo Indians heading for Nevada. I fell asleep on the luggage and woke when they stopped to let me out. I thought I was in Reno. A kid playing in his front yard told me he didn't know which way downtown Reno was, but if I was looking for the ocean it was "three blocks that way". I was in Santa Cruz, California.
Stuff happens. It's understandable ....you have too many scoots to keep track of.
Today the Stig learned (google maps) that NJ has a coastline on the Atlantic!
Who knew?
Also, I think I found your house there in NJ...
See, no sign of you or the scoot!

Say AMAC, serious question. Where are SYMs made?
My LIKE200i was made in China. Are any SYM or Lance scoots or bikes made in China?
,
Thanks, Stig

[AMAC1680]

Sorry I missed that Dtig.
Yeah there are Lance models made in china. I'll try to dig around for the models.
