I would like to add to my situation something that I did not find in any of the other posts regarding this issue. My bike WILL start with Ether  or an outside fuel source, which to my way of thinking discounts the idea that it is an electrical/fuse/relay/ECM problem. 3 things must be present for an engine to run, AIR-FUEL-VOLTAGE. Since I provided the fuel outside of that triad loop, my obvious direction is a  fuel delivery problem. I was just looking for someone who might have used an aftermarket pump and what type of experience they had.

Anyone who has done this, we'd appreciate a write-up. I'll format it and post it in the mods area.

I know some on here have had a good replacement with the Quatum Fuel Systems pumps. Search fuel pumps for their posts...in the search box.

Thanks for the reply, I see several aftermarket kits available, so I'm assuming it is possible and at considerably less cost than the single unit, but we all know what assume can mean. Well, a kit is 30 bucks so if I spend that first and win.........great..............if not a win...........then I guess I chalk it up to learning.

I haven't... but the fuel pump and plate are an assembly... one part number. Sorry can't be more help.

Has anyone ever replaced a fuel pump as an individual part instead of the whole tank base plate unit, and if so what problems if any did you encounter?
