Good work! One of my posts on this thread was about cleaning the fuel tank and fuel injection rail. The fuel injectors may have varnish that has solidified and reduced the volume of fuel that is needed. Is the fuel pump a new OEM or is it from a different bike application? I've read where people have used a different fuel pump and had issues because the pump did not produce the volume needed.Good news but not where it needs to be........installed the new fuel pump today and it powered on like it should and after a few unsuccessful tries the engine fired up but the idling was really rough but it started. I just let the engine idle (rough Idle) and every time i even cracked the throttle to rev a little it would die so this went on for a while but it started back easy just won't throttle. Remember this bike hasn't run in 12 years does the no rev sound like an injector problem? any suggestion on what to do to help with this problem?
My first thought with your issue is because of restriction in the injectors maybe a good fuel injector cleaner may clear the problem if it varnish related. Sounds just like a total lean out when the throttle plates open which would indicate not enough fuel delivery.
I think @TownsendsFJR1300 may be able to recommend and good cleaner.
