Unless it has an internal bypass valve. I personally would not leave it on the bike unless I knew how it worked.
Where did you get it and does it have make/model info on it?

sounds like the pump you bought is faulty ! !
as for original problem stupid i know but have you checked the breather is clear on the tank filler neck ??? easily overlooked as it deffinately sounds like a starvation problem 
waters wet, shit stinks !
 As your new pump hasn't fixed the fault and doesn't have a pressure cut-off switch, I'd stick the old one back on. Maybe it's an electrical problem, intermittent fuel pump relay perhaps. The control signal for the fuel pump relay comes from the ignitor unit. Try the usual search for loose and corroded connectors, damaged wires etc. and if nothing looks wrong, a new relay. <edit> Sorry. Ignore this, missed the post where you found the original problem is solved!

Just to correct a common misnomer, the fuel pump is not controlled by the ignitor, it gets it power from the Ignition fuse via the Kill switch and a relay which is is controlled by the ignitor.
The ignitor supplies an earth to switch on the pump relay, but knows nothing of the Fuel pump. All controls like the pressure control and timer are within the pump housing The pump you bought is either faulty or not the correct one for the FZS600.

I have pump number 3 (including the original duffer) on it's way.
This one I am promised by a good friend of a good friend who breaks bikes that this one is off a running 03 model. In the meantime I have put a new tyre on the front as the v shaped one I had was getting fun to use..lol.. I stripped the old knackered pump just to see how it works. It would seem there are 2 valves inside it so I'm going with a faulty valve on the new one but as I had to change the connector I can't send it back. Lesson learned. . When the next pump is in place n tested I will report.. in the meantime I have learned to count to 10 and say the words please, thank you and beer in German...lol..
Life is never complete. Once you've discovered rock music, beer, bikes & girls, you have the rest of your life to intimately explore each one.. Good luck with finishing that project.
