what is the defrance between the Injection & carburetor engines in motorecycle?which is better to owne?

Question

i want to buy ATV. i have 2 option Injection & carburetor engine . i dont know which one to sellect from the 2 type of them.

Answer 1

Two of my current motorcycles are fuel injected. The third has a carburetor. The fuel injected bikes are easier starting in all kinds of weather, they run smoother and are more fuel efficient.

The only advantage the carburetor has over fuel injection is for the individual who wants to modify the engine or do his own tune-ups. The carburetor is easier to change jets and tune for competition and to work properly with exhaust and intake mods.

If all you want to do is ride, and have a good running, easy starting machine, then fuel injection is probably the better choice. If you want to get into racing and tuning your own engine, stick with the carburetor.

Answer 2

With all the developments in electronics in the last few year, injected engines run much smoother and start easier than the carburetor types. Unfortunately, the injection system often costs more $$$. Try to balance any additional cost against the convenience of not having to worry about setting the choke and the fact that injected engines normally use less fuel.

Answer 3

I would recommend carburetor, since it does not require the maintenance necessary to run a fuel injected bike. Also, in order to run a fuel injection system you need the sensors, engine control unit all that so it is better to use a carburator on a small engine, that is why almost all competition bikes use it. The difference is that carburators take the air from the atmosphere and uses it to create vacuum to pull the gas from the gas tank and mix it with the air to later ignite it using the spark plug. On the other hand the fuel injection system works with a computer that sensors either the mass of air taken through the manifold or the pressure created inside the intake manifold and that sensor then tells the main computer how much fuel is needed in order to ignite it properly with the spark plug. It is up to you, since the latter requires more expensive things in order to run.

Answer 4

Fuel injection is much more efficient than carburetion. Just start it and go.
Most injected bikes/ATVs have throttle-body injection (which is a glorified carburetor with a fuel injector in it). Less maintenance than a carbureted fuel system (it takes care of itself-no need for adjustments to mixtures-ever because the computer adjusts it according to conditions constantly and automatically).
The only drawback is the price. FI bikes cost more.

Answer 5

Is your choice of an F.I. ATV one that came stock with it, or one that has an aftermarket/homemade system of some nature?

If the F.I. equipped unit has had F.I. added, personally I'd want to know what kind of system is on it, who installed it and then inspect the system as installed from one end to the other.

The factory equipped F.I. machines are, for the most part bulletproof and have had lots of development time on them before they were made available to the public.

There is a lot of misconception and just plain bad and false information out there about F.I. and you've got to be able to sort through that to get some real info. As a rule though F.I. enables easier starts, crisper throttle response, better fuel mileage, and more flexibility in tuning.

Personally, every motorcycle and car I own are fuel injected and I couldn't be happier. Fuel injection is definitely the future of the sport as most manufactures are already making the switch to F.I. on many models. From everything I'm hearing and seeing carbs will be completely replaced by F.I. on new models in the next 5 years or so.

Answer 6

Carb all the way. If you are mechanically inclined, you'll find a carburetor very straightforward to maintain, adjust, rebuild, and set. Fuel injection is certainly efficient, but more complex to diagnose and expensive to replace. In newer models, it's become computer-controlled electronic fuel injection....which = rocket science.

Answer 7

carberator is old school mechanical mixxer of the fuel / air mixture. you hav to shut the bike down to make changes manually. injection is new school, it is computer controlled fuel mixer. the computer automatically adjusts the mixture while you are riding for the best engine performance. go injection if all all possible, routine maintence and it should run trouble free for almost forever. (with no worries about changes in air temp, barometric pressure humidity,elevation above sealevel. anything that changes the air pressure will affect the performance of a carberator, injection systems will automatically adjust.

Answer 8

i think carburrater one would be a better choice since in carburrator one there is provision for filtering of clean and dirt free air.more than that
generally injector is used in compressed ignetion engine that r diesel engine i dont know how can a bike have a injector fitted in it

Answer 9

carb. but only if you want to modify performance, fix and work on it your self and spend hardly any money on jets. if you want some else to do it, have to spend alot of many to have a efi controller put on, because of performance parts go fuel injection.

Answer 10

Injection-especially if they are going to be run sporadically.
