What would be the best/safest place to take power from the the fuel pump when running ram air? Im thinking a fused feed from the +12v ignition side of the fuse box or is there a better way?

splice off the + to a coil (as said above) then to ground
this way if the engine stops, the pump also stops.

Not sure anyway is safest, I just have it off a 12v ignition live (ie rear coil live) and works fine, mbe if it was a road bike id put it on a switch aswell so its not constantly going whenever you turn the bike on? just an idea
