Your hearing must be good though, to hear the pump over the engine and road noise :thumbup
You ain't the first, and you won't be the last - at least your bike shop wasn't closer... That would have been REALLY embarrassing!

Not really - I heard the noise when I was slowing down before a junction in a 30. As for volume, you know that ticking you sometimes get when you switch the ignition on? Imagine that, slightly louder and continuous. I honestly hope I didn't damage the pump.
As for the bike shop, it would have been embarrassing, costly, and I'd have be mocked for weeks. Thank God I remembered I'd switched the fuel off. And, ironically, thank God EndaF wasn't home - the bike finally cut out outside his house, and my first reaction was to bang on his door to ask if I could borrow his to go to the shop to get the mechanic to pick the bike up for me.
Again, :groan
