Welll letseee... I rolled the throttle half way without the engine running, start on... fans kicked on but I couldn't hear the pump run. It is hard to hear it I gueess.. so it is either the pump, the sensor or the thermostat...

Sorry about the troubles.
I've seen in here about this happening from time to time. Is this the first time you've had trouble with the bike?

Ken...pump, sensor or thermostat. Find out which one is least expensive to repair and rule that out immediately.

Well the first problem was the radio, since it is the first bike I ever owned with one, go figure!
