Default fuel pump recommendation needed

So my 09 883L sportster with 5,000 miles wouldn't start after sitting for the winter. Did some diagnosis and confirmed fuel pump is dead. Took it out and filter crumbled apart and all 3 zip ties were broken. Put 12V directly to the pump and get nothing. So being new to Harley's and riding in general what's a good quality aftermarket fuel pump? Don't really want to spend dealer prices for oem. I'm sure there must be some good aftermarket ones. Want to avoid the $30 ebay china cheapies. I'm seeing brands like Quantum, FPF, Twin Power and All ***** Racing. Any recommendations/input would be appreciated.

TIA
Dave

All ***** has a good reputation for upgraded starters, so I would probably trust them.

Can’t really go wrong with quantum fuel systems:

Hello, I am new to this forum and new to owning a HD in general. I just acquired a 2012 Sportster that had bad fuel and upon pulling out the fuel pump, it was ridden with varnish from old fuel, filter disintegrated etc. The original pump cost an arm and a leg and I am also looking for aftermarket alternatives.

Can someone locally provide some recommendations please? I saw a lot of bad reviews on QFS but not sure of your experiences here? I am also reading bad reviews on All ***** Racing Fuel pumps as well but someone recommended that here as well.

Any others that you recommend based on the fact that you have had them for a while? Many Thanks.
