    That sucks.

    Instead of ordering new, check ebay, and possibly the MRA and WERA boards.

    Re: Parts needed

    if it's a submerged in the tank style, doubt it. If it's an inline pump, should be able to get a universal that will fit in the space and have the right pressure for carbs or FI.

    That really sucks, I have to replace a fuel pump on my wifes car here shortly before school starts. And yes they are pricey.... $240 is what it will cost her. Just remember to always keep plenty fuel in that tank

    Wow, I must be really lucky then... I've run out of gas a few times (always trying to push the envelope & see how many miles I can get on "reserve" ... most I ever got was 44.1 )

    Problem with that is all the sediment and other crap on the bottom of the tank gets sucked up into your fuel pump. I got through 2-3 fuel pumps a year and some of them were just clogged up after I pulled them apart.

    Re: **Need help**

    Problem solved!! I contacted Steeles around 1045 and they had one for a 2007 in stock. (Thanks for the heads up on the part Jim, but i was already on my way there. haha).

    Picked it up for a cool $100! got it back to Faster an hour ago...and i just picked her up.

    Once again, thank you all so much for the help! It really means a lot to me that a club i pretty much just joined, would help me like this. You are all an amazing group of people!

    Yep, i'm so stoked to do this. I never knew Dave but this is something i can do to pay tribute to his life and his family. And when the bike went down last night, not making this ride was the first thing that popped into my head.

    Yeah, usually I'd agree, and as I said, they're hard to recommend, but, in this case, he got his bike up & running and can make the ride when no one else had a part...
