#915125 zachtange (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 74 Pumpless 2 Years, 6 Months ago   Not sure if I'm posting this in the right section of the forum, but I am wondering what the advantages to going pumpless are, and if theres any disadvantages to it? I read the tech article on it and have seen lots of posts on here about people saying its a good thing.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #915127 Aussie John (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1937 Re:Pumpless 2 Years, 6 Months ago   First it stops the carb puking, next you get to throw the fuel pump in the bin so that gets rid of any future problems and once the float level is set its ride and forget, I've not had a problem since going pumpless, some vent the fuel cap but I removed the rollover valve and drilled out the steel breather pipe on the top of the tank at the front on the RH side as it has a spring and ball so no fumes can get out but it makes it hard for the tank to breath in as well, and more important you can drink beer while your doing it   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #915130 Questcap (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 7727 Re:Pumpless 2 Years, 6 Months ago   I primarily did it to pretty up the left side of the engine, as I want to expose my jugs! The engine is gorgeous... show it off.   Logged     Sig Pic deleted - larger than 450 pixels and 50 kb   The administrator has disabled public write access. #915135 Arps (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 4415 Re:Pumpless 2 Years, 6 Months ago   exposed jugs are good   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #915142 Warden (Moderator) Moderator Posts: 9535 Re:Pumpless 2 Years, 6 Months ago   First thing I do on any bike I get. Just gets rid of something that is simply not needed. When I turn on the switch, no more "click, click, click....." of the fuel pump running before starting. I've had so many episodes of Carb Puke that I vowed to cure it permanently! Cleans up the bike on the left side. It makes JakeUSAF happy. It also makes me happy.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #915145 Bigrigme (User) Chris Platinum Boarder Posts: 3176 Re:Pumpless 2 Years, 6 Months ago   Warden wrote: It makes JakeUSAF happy.   Logged     2004 Roadstar Silverado   The administrator has disabled public write access. #915181 SKWEARpeg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 12885 Re:Pumpless 2 Years, 6 Months ago   Just do it right.

Anything you would change?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #915245 JakeUSAF (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 5671 Re:Pumpless 2 Years, 6 Months ago   Do it you'll love it!
