fuel pump
 

Anyone have a fuel pump for the rx3? I broke the nipple off where the fuel line goes CSC is out of stock 30 to 60 days wait. So much for there great parts support riding season not that long here in Vermont

Well hopefully someone here can come up with an alternative. I didn't see anything on ebay for used. I am courious also what is compatible with the Rx3. Good luck... The last order I had with CSC came really fast and I was happy.

I would be blaming the pandemic more than CSC - there has been so much supply and shipping chain disruption over the last 14 months that it is next to impossible to get some things right now. Still doesn't fix your immediate issue, and when something like that happens we all want it yesterday, but that still doesn't make it CSC's fault.

Having said all that, there was a post in the RX3 thread over on ADVRider about a compatible fuel pump from another bike and the unit from the Benelli TNT300 was mentioned. Here is a link to the relevant post:

It's post #6545, which has a link to a unit on AliExpress. Here is a direct link:

It will probably be a toss up as to who could get it to you sooner, but AliExpress will probably be a lot cheaper.

Also see these items. And DHL is a cheap upgrade, my experience is that Ali items via DHL arrive in less than two weeks.

May wanna address the fuel sock at the same time...mine fell apart and kill the fuel pump...but I revived the pump with WD 40 douching,hot battery and gentle taps on the pump...she sprang back to life and been fine ever since...I discarded the fuel sock and I now run a Twin Air fuel sock in the gas cap opening...

any mod needed or does it just drop right in and sit securely in the space between the lid and the tank opening?
