Anyone know about bike fuel pumps??

Good morning.
Following on from a recent posting about overfueling zx9 carbs I have spent the week trying to get a hold of the correct pump for the job (without success) Nobody seems to have one around these parts. So my question is this...
Does anyone know of another pump that will be suitable for the job? i.e. r1,zx6 ect as there are loads on the bay of e finishing shortly at reasonable money and could get me sorted within the week. I have asked various sellers, but without reply I'm reluctant to go spending if its just going to be a gamble!

Hope you can help.

Thanks a lot.

john.

I would put the pump as near to the tank as possible and low as they like to push fuel and they dont seem to like pulling.

Yep - using an R1 with my blade and it's fine.

I think most are made by Mitsubishi and are similar and are all up to the job.
