Done some basic fault finding and may have more than one issue.
Bike has been stood under a tarp for 3 years..
Fitted new battery, flushed out old fuel put a gallon of new fuel in.
Ign on, no fuel pump noise.
Checked fuse
Checked relay
Bridged out relay, now have power to green wire to fuel pump connection block but pump still doesn't prime.
Got 12v on pump relay from ign but not across the terminals so could be a negative issue.

Any help greatly appreciated

Connected pump direct to 12V and nothing. Looks like its seized.

Will that quantum pump for the 1150 fit in the 1100?
 
I fitted a fuelperformance pump. It failed without warning after less than two years of use.
Components sometimes fail, but I don’t think I’d use them again.
 
Found a fuel pump for £28 inc filter basket.

place called maxpeedingrods, arrived within 48hours.


fitted today, along with 2nd hand QD's and new lines and after a bit of choke she purred into life.

some more problems have arisen in regards to 6 years of sitting outside, ABS light wont turn off, rear brake binding a bit. got to have the wheels off and clean the pistons and sensors, see if that helps any.
 
it also jumped out of second gear, im sure that'll end up being a reconned box and probably a clutch whilst its in half too.
 
Bit late in on this, and I'm sure you're sorted by now .... won't prime if the sidestand is down :beerjug: Or at least it wouldn't on mine.

Just a heads up, this bike was stolen on Monday night from the Maidstone, Kent area.

A lot of time and money been spent on it, so gutted that some scoter took it.
BTW, Oxford chains are made of cheese

If you see or hear it, gimme a shout.
