Re: my new toy :)

R,
taking aquick peek at the pictures you look to have stainless steel lines NOT rubber. If that is the case Don is spot on & I did say all Fluids for your own peace of mind.
If not that rubber hose set is well past its sell by date so go stainless steel lines.

Re: my new toy :)
do the fuel pumps on fzrs have a sensor to cut out when petrol is well low? just tried starting my bike then and the fuel pump wasnt doing its usual clicking :-/
Re: my new toy :)
Is this a 1000? If so, then yes - there is a sensor in the tank that will chop the fuel pump at some 'low' level. Once you flip the 'Reserve' switch in the left fairing, the pump comes back on.

Re: my new toy :)
*wince* Check your Ignition fuse, check the wires and connectors at the pump, TCI, and main relay assembly (left side rear, behind the seat fairing).
Does the bike start?

If it's just a bad wire, can you not simply patch it?
