Please respond if you've NOT had a 1200GS/GSA fuel pump controller failure

[Engineer]

April 2005, 45,000 miles - no fuel pump failure.

However I always cover the fuel pump controller compartment when washing the bike and dry it out if I have been out in the rain for a long time.

Ridden daily for first two years and now either runs very short journeys to the local train station or stands still for extended periods. It ate a final drive in the first year at 25k but other than that has been faultless.

Cheers.
