I sourced a used tank and had to remove the fuel pump/filter/float assembly into the replacement tank.The bike would start but wouldn't run unless I constantly blipped the throttle. I went down a few blind alleys with internet theories, such as, the bike needs to go through a full cycle of start, warm up, run to working temp. blah, blah. As a result of trying to run this cycle, the mufflers got blued through excess heat (weak mixture). So I have up and had the bike towed to a recommended shop. They said that the fuel pump. O-ring wasn't sealing and the injector lines weren't gerring up to pressure. Unfortuntately that's all I know. Since that time the bike has covered another 25,000 Kms without a hiccup. Just oil changes and fluids flushed and coolant changed.</blockquote>
