Ummm. Bike Carbs go out of balance all the time, the needle jets wear out, they're awful. Webers are good, yeah, they need re-balancing every so often, just like Throttle Bodies. Yes you do get the same power gains, the better thing about Throttle Bodies is they can be mapped all through the rev range and Carburettors can't. They also Carburete the fuel at higher RPMS but on standard bottom end Zetecs, they're just as good. 30-40BHP gain on Carbs and exactly the same for Throttle Bodies.
