I don't remember who came up with this idea, but I think
this is a VERY CLEAN
relocation scheme for the fuel pump. It may have been Bill H I think.
I can't
take credit for all of this.

The guy that came up with the idea woke up today, errrr...
Spoke
up today. RC (RCHAMMER1) did the pictures and write up on the
fuel
pump modification. In RC's own words..
" By the way, my installation is still working
great with absolutely no problems. I have had it
this way for over 15,000 miles now."

| Remove Seat, Tank, Fuel cover and bracket and proceed with the rest.
The relay in the front (on my picture) is the control
relay for the fuel pump.
Set up prior to moving relay to outside of
bracket.

Another "after relocation" shot. |
After relay behind bracket is moved to the outside,
(relay moved is on the left hand side)
The fuel pump retains the rubber mount and hooks onto the
bracket after you move the inner relay to the outside rear bracket.
Everything is then hidden behind the side cover with nothing
showing.

The blue/black wire in the corner of the relay socket is the wire you
attach to for the fuel pump. Right there where you are, real nice.
I used the original connector to make replacement a snap
I used the bullet connectors with silicone jackets (like
Yamaha uses for the tail light connectors)
and attached them to the fuel pump connector that was up under the
tank.
This makes for a real easy change out if you ever have
to replace the pump,
no more mods are ever necessary

| It took about 6 1/2 feet of fuel line to do the way I routed it.
I Have never had that much fuel line on a motorcycle before,
maybe I can go an extra 5 miles with that amount of fuel line!!!

Very clean looking side now
The Lightning Shift Rod, The Stainless Steel Floorboard Extension
and even Mr. Tidy's 4 way flasher switch on the side cover all looks good.
