Echo what Flip says. He recommended I too replace the fuel lines, pump and tap on my M750 with new but as a skinflint I only replaced some of the fuel lines ,notably the main ones from the tap/ pump. My bike's PO had already rebuilt the vacuum pump with the Allen's kit. The taps had gone up in price considerably when I checked with MR and some of the lines were NLA. I managed to get a s/h tap off this Forum and had to improvise with some of the fuel lines that were NLA.
I'm hoping my misfiring issues are not ethanol related as I always run my bike on super unleaded E5.
May be worth a test ride on the bike you are interested in if possible to check it out more thoroughly?
