I thought that the Bonneville was changing to fuel injection this year - will the America and the Speedmaster follow suit?
And as an aside, has anyone had any problems with the carbs on an America or Speedmaster, or are they maintenance-free and reliable?
Thanks

To the first part yes I thought that they had gone for efi.
Reference the carbs I have had this America for 6 years and have never had any problems with the carbs even thoughI had them re-jetted when I had the engine bored out to 902cc in 2004.
Even though my bike is very "shiny" it has and does get very dirty when I go away each year and through the winter, so the carbs and bike get lots of grime in the linkages.

All Bonnie models have Efi for 2008.

All the twins are injection now - they just don't look it.
The throttle bodies are disguised as carbs. VERY WELL disguised too!
