Just filled up! Pretty sure it ain't the fuel as it didn't want to start either.

I quick bone to pick, in the 4/5 hours we were at the side of road not ONE bike stopped. Hundreds went by, and it wasn't like it would be difficult to pull over where we were, Before I have barely got off the bike and had someone stop to see if everything was OK.

Also Yamaha take the piss £791 for a fuel pump? Fuck off.

ALSO check your insurance breakdown cover. Mine only covered me 10 miles Rolling Eyes the remaining 31 home cost me £140.

Basically I'm in a fucking mood. Laughing

That is taking the P for a fuel pump can you not rig a generic 12V car pump into the circuit?
I never trust Insurance Breakdown cover, there is a reason why it is about £40. Pay the AA or RAC to give you full cover, it will cost you more but work out far cheaper if you need to use it.

It is a unit which bolts into the bottom of the tank, and includes the fuel gauge, £72 S/H on ebay.

I doubt any other part would fit. I genuinely cannot comprehend how they can charge so much. Rolling Eyes
