Default Fuel pump noise

Mine started doing the fuel pump grinding noise, just turned 7500 miles.

I know I read about the issue here somewhere but can't find the thread.

Anyone else have the issue and get it resolved?

Finally got the bike in to the dealer Wednesday, they had it 2 days...

Result: Mothership is aware of the issue, no fix as of yet. They are gathering data to determine a cause of action. They want my videos and have documented my case.

When I get stranded, I'm gonna have someones ***.

So the problem is noise only? No codes or change in performance?

The noise is followed by a loss of power. Mine wouldn’t get past 6000 rpm when I got to dealer. No pumps in inventory, no idea when stock arriving. Does anyone know of any available pumps in Canada/USA?

Any others having this issue? Mine started screaming a few weeks back, but I’ve been ignoring it. I don’t feel like making time to drop it off at the dealership.

Mine doesn't do it all the time, in fact it's only happened a handful of times since I took it to the dealer. They basically told me it's been documented and nothing else they can do. I'm gonna ride it until it fails then I'm gonna have someones *** when it finally fails. I'll use all my time and resources to make someone's life a living hell to include the dealer and the mothership (I hope your listening mothership).

Mine does it 100% of the time. I can hear it over the noisy motor with ear plugs in.
