The other thing that goes along with this is that you will not hear the fuel pump run when you turn on the ignition (it runs for three seconds before shutting off) but most people are not really paying much attention to that, and you cannot hear it with a helmet or helmet and hearing protection anyway.... at least I cannot.
It is pretty loud- I can and do hear and notice it every time I turn on the ignition, even with helmet and hearing protection. And I am usually sitting on bike so I can feel it, too. I always wait until the pump is done before trying to start the bike. Not sure if that is required or expected or if it even matters, it just seems like the right thing to do.
