I used to be in the "carb only crowd". I had questions about reliablity, maitenance, etc. After owning 3 EFI bikes now and riding well over 40000 miles on these bikes there has only been one problem with all three of them. Yamaha, Husky and a Honda, all with EFI have all had an off idle stumble. These bikes all came from the factory extremely lean apparently to pass the EPA sniffer test. All have been easy fixes, the Honda an EJK, the Husky a spoofer and the Yamahan jumping the clutch switch to fool the ECU the bike was being started hence enriching the fueling. I suspect the RX-3 will have some type of fueling niggle with an equally simple fix. Perfomance wise I now will always pick an EFI over a carbed bike anyday.
