Default Potential new owner

Hello everyone! Potential new 01 CBR600 F4i owner here. I recently got the itch to get a bike and found a local guy selling one on the cheap. He says the only thing that is wrong with it is that it needs a new fuel pump gasket. That and he has it setup like a streetfighter.
How hard is this gasket to change? Would it be more beneficial to just buy a new pump altogether? What else should I look for?

Welcome to the site, rifleman. If the bike is a fighter, it's likely been wrecked... possibly more than once. I'd look for bad damage. Also, check for strange noises, smoke, stuff that doesn't work, etc.
I'm not really into fighters too much unless they're unique or really cheap.
