Just bought a 1986, K100C which has not been used since 1999.
Fuel tank had some petrol in it, but fuel was yellow and has varnished all internals. Rubber vibration ring and hoses were a guey horrible mess and the fuel pump is seized (probably due to the stale petrol and sticky varnish).
Will need to replace the rubber vibration ring and gauze filter from Motorworks, but I'm looking for advice on a replacement fuel pump instead of the £185 + from Motorworks and the like.
Anyone here replaced the fuel pump with a suitable alternative ?
Overall the bikes in tidy condition, needs a bit of a tidy up, clean and replace the brake hoses etc.
Rear master cylinder has been leaking and seized, so a replacement also needed.
Looking forward to some time tinkering in the garage.
Previously had a K1100LT, 1992, which was a great bike, but progressed onto the Oilheads.
Thanks for looking.
