I havent suffered yet, but last time in London I went and bought a fuel pump controller, seems the necessary part to have in your tool box, more so if you are out of Europe and BMW hugging arms

no issues here captain

I've not had any issues with my fuel pump controller or in fact anything on my bike except the left heated grip failed. I ride in all sorts of weather and have not had any issues in snow, ice, grit, heat, touring, offroad etc. Mine is a 2007 model R1200GS Adv.
