Hello all,

Yep another newbie.. honestly I've read through a bunch of threads and cannot find the specific info i'm lookin for. I Feel a little bad, i think i took advantage of a guy's situation with an angry wife, gutted house, and a 10 second car in the garage. i picked up an01 x1 for a steal. i was wavin a fistfull of cash at half of what the guy was askin... his wife was obviously tired of the haggling and him hawing around on his part... after a short private convo between them.. i landed myself the bike i had a picture of in my highschool locker all those years ago!!!! I love this bike... long story short.. sold it to my brother to shelter her from a nasty little divorce... shes been in storage for about 6 years. im finally getting my life back together and i'm trying to breath life into the beast basically i have a pretty crudded up fuel delivery system. pump is shot and the wire came off the low fuel switch.
I'm pretty sure I repaired the switch wire however the pump is definitely shot. its got a dead winding. it wont run in the test bench with direct voltage. I've been doing some research. came across a youtube video that linked me to a complete rebuild kit.

I know it's a little pricey but is anyone familiar with Aagaard Moto Products? The products are same manufacturer as the original and made in america.

Chaz at Aagard is super good and worth every stinking penny.

Alternatively our own Barrett on here is well versed in Buell fuel pumps and stocks replacements and re-build kits. A fine option indeed.
