Yeh N, I thought that about the headlamp bulb but that is how you purchase it comes as a unit from most Halfords type shops, just release the wire clip to get it out of nose cone.

The new fuel pump seems to have cured the problem 😀.Need to check the bike over for any loose bits then get out for another 50+miles and some higher revs! Thanks to all of you for your help and advice and to Griff for his knowledge and fuel pump 👍

I'm wondering if changing the pump and filters after a period of time /mileage would be a sensible preventative idea? I never had cause to doubt my 24,000 mile T until it just cut on me one very hot day, going uphill when low on fuel. It started again immediately but happened again several times until I filled her up and not a murmer since. Given what I've seen regarding the filter/ hoses and t bag and knowing my fuel overflow tube has been blocked in the past when the bike was kept outside I'm thinking perhaps a strip down may be advisable. I do actually have a spare pump unit complete for a late gen1 which I believe to be good, if they're compatible? |

I wouldn’t know if they are compatible but it makes sense to me to change if you have a spare. I am hoping to get the fuel pump that I took out refurbished so I have a spare
