hi there, i would like to buy a scottoiler system for my bike as the chain does get rusty here up in the north of scotland due to heavy rain pretty much 25hours a daY! but i didnt know which scottoiler to buy? and where/how to install it. if someone could point me to the right direction, it would be very helpful. thanks.

the basic one is fine i have one on my RVF
locate the resevior under the seat on the righ hand side with the rear elevated, vacuum from the obvious place between the fuel vacuum, and oil feed follows the rear brake hose and the drip bolts to the swingarm chain guard bolt.
set to 2 gives enough of a drip to oil the chain.

Pictures please crm

no chance. its locked up in the container

The standard one is fine,
I stopped fitting the feed pipe to the rear sprocket, it blocks easily, only lubes 1 side of the chain, needs pipe/tiewraps along the swingarm & snaggs when refitting the rear wheel (not a prob on the '30/5). Much better to fit the outlet behind the front sprocket.

thats a really good idea that phil. you got any pics of yours and where its exiting ?

soo... scottoiler v system? is that the normal one? i see on ebay there are specific ones for each bike..i cant seem to find the nc30 version. so i still dont know.. perhaps a link?

I'm about to put my brake line through the swingarm and I think I will lose the scottoiler through there and come out the bottom!!! Once done I will post some pics if you lioke that sort of thing

Not on an NC30 but I'm sure it'd fit somehow just make sure that there is no less than 5mm or so sticking down otherwise the oil doesn't drip, it just runs along the chain slider.
BTW, don't laugh at my anti-corrosion policy
