i was hoping this was going to be a "what would win in a bare knuckle boxing match" 
 
bike carbs arent as likely to go out of balance as much apparantly. 
 
depends what size bike carbs also.

I would go for the 45s as they are not bike carbs, bike carbs are meant for 1000cc / 10k rpm+ or abouts not very many 2L bikes around, bike carbs will still work indeed but people get them because they are cheap, get dellortos as well, webbers aren't as good IMO.

carbs are tuned to suit nearly everything so bike carbs are not made for 1000cc/10krpm

Bike carbs are better, so long as the inlet on the carbs is large enough that its not restricting the inlet ports on the head they will work. 
 
They are superior in operation too, much smoother and easier to tune.
