Is the fuel pump super reliable or is this a spare part that might be critical? I'm thinking that if it fails, I'm SOL, dead in the water, up the creek without a chance, etc, etc. I know there are any number of such parts but this is one that didn't exist on prior off-road machines and it is an electric motor/pump system that has lots of failure modes... OR will the bike still run without it... even a little bit? I don't really want to carry a spare but, what if?
BTW: lots of the forum tools don't seem to work near as well in Opera as in IE8...
