I found a new aftermarket fuel pump for $19 on ebay. I just can't tell if this a fuel problem or electrical? My signals don't blink and I just noticed my headlights kind of flash when the bike is vertical, less when it's on the kickstand.

Bad ground somewhere. Can cause all kinds of issues.

I stumbled upon a thread where a R6 was cured of a similar problem by changing the pickup coil. He changed and checked everything. He tested the pickup coil and it passed but he installed his friends one and it was fixed. This was originally a thread someone posted about their CBR1000RR not going over 8, it sounded like his bike was in safe mode? I'm really hoping the pump or pickup coil fixes it?

I changed the signal relay and the signals blinked again. The next day they stopped again. Shouldn't the fuse blow before the relay? I removed the fuses for headlight and signals, made no difference to how it's running. I have a new pickup coil but Mission didn't submit my gasket order until yesterday. They should have it Monday or Tuesday. I really hope this fixes it? Anybody ever have a similar problem?

I need to ride! It's been 6 months. I can't wait to see if my R6 handles like my CBR did? I will never buy a Yamaha again. I want another 04 or newer CBR1000RR! Please help me get back out there.
