If you live in a relatively flat area then sure…carbs. I live in the mountains and can change 5-6K feet of elevation on one ride. The carb will not run great somewhere along that trip. I will mention the Euro5 emissions throttle/fuel maps on EFI can be janky. Carbs do have a smoother power delivery in general…when working.
