Yes and no. Carburetor are easy to work on and tune if you are familiar with 'em, and while a carburetor will rarely run as well as EFI (especially across the entire rev range), it will almost always run. And there are many situations in which I'd prefer a carbureted engine running poorly to an EFI sitting cold because the program isn't quite right.

For something like ATVs that I love to run around on, they definitely have their place.
