Scottoiler location 04 Tiger 955i

I struggled to find a suitable easy fit location for my Scottoiler so bit the bullet and bought some 3mm sheet aluminium. £10 got me a huge off-cut from the local metal store. An empty cornflake packet donated its carcase and hacksaw in hand, the fun began. Much measuring, filing, drilling and polishing later, this is what I ended up with;

For the oil reservoir holding bracket, on my Tiger, there was a hole in the chassis that I drilled out to 7.5mm and tapped to M8 for a suitable allen head bolt. The space was just right for the Scottoiler.




Next the dispenser, I like the twin feed dispensers but didn't want to drill into the swing-arm for the mounting bracket. The only existing hole was the rear chain-guard (now hugger) mount so I avoided the small discrete approach and opted for an 'in your face' bracket.






I routed the feed tube through a small gap in the frame bracket and which exited through an existing hole in the frame tube.



It clears the shock by a considerable margin and its easily accessible behind the side cover for filling and adjustment.
