Default Will i be happy?

Since i have gotten the explaination of the difference between Carb and FI bikes, i have been leaning on finding a FI bike within my price range. Now, coming to a point where im getting ready to take my class and want a bike soon after, im not so sure i will find an FI bike within my price range (ie. an 03+ R6 or even an 01+ GSXR600).

My question is, do you think i will be satisfied even if i end up with a carb'ed bike? How bad are the problems with them starting up for you?

Havent started up my F2 in a week, its carbed, went out this morning and it started right up just took a minute to warm up. The biggest diffrence is throttle response.

Yeah it isn't that big of a deal if you plan on getting a bike and keeping it fairly stock (power-wise).
