Looking for fuel pump assembly

Hi, new to the forums here, and I am looking to replace my fuel pump assembly for my 2005 VFR800.  The local Honda shop says it is on backorder and won't be able to get a hold of one for probably a month or more 🤥

This bike sat in storage for 6 years with old fuel in the tank and basically the bad fuel melted everything.  I have been warned to not get an aftermarket pump and I have searched online and found a much better price for OEM ($400 vs. Honda's $600) but everyone is backordered and says a month or more.  Can anyone help in locating one?  I'm desperate to get back in the saddle!  😜  Thanx for any help or advice you can give.

P.S. part # is 16700-MCW-D02

Check ebay, there are a number of used OEM to choose from.

+1 on Grum's recommendation.  Have used Kemso units in the past, wouldn't hesitate at all.  Ebay has several listed.

Thanx for the info guys....much appreciated.  The Honda shop warned me about buying non-OEM that they wouldn't last at all.  I'm assuming this is bull****?

You are assuming correct, a Honda stealership would say nothing else, and will always advise to ONLY use OEM!

KEMSO would not offer a lifetime warranty if its Japanese product was crap! And raYzerman, having used them speaks highly of the product.
