  1. Ho hum, taught my boy how to change the oil on the Supersport engine, and then when it came time to fire her up.... Fuel pump u/s!!

    I am pretty sure the pump was new when I built the bike, and I didn't put too many miles on her, but a solid no-go! but on checking the wiring against another SS tank, that pump worked when connected to my bike.

    The low fuel light came on too with my tank, so I dont think its the power feed. So onto eBay order a new one.

    Never fear says I let's sort the brakes out...... Nada, no brake fluid getting down to the calipers. Nice 19/20 radial pump... Buggered rubbers methinks! Never fear I have another, not so snazzy but still radial.... DOT 4 getting down to the callipers....yipee. Dot 4 leaking out of the pump....boo!

    I have one more OEM radial... A silver one off a Later 916 or suchlike. I also gave a gorgeous AP racing radial pump... But that definitely needs new o-rings.

    And finally I have a NOS brembo competition radial pump, but I don't want to use that on this bike!

    Does anyone know where I can get my brembos and the AP racing pumps serviced? WhatsApp Image 2025-09-08 at 15.40.41_4d1b1926.jpg
