Title: Scottoiler
Post by: daveb on June 02, 2010, 09:46:03 AM
You help and assistance is required.

I have just ordered a Touring scottoiler, http://www.triumph-online.co.uk/scottoi ... 4961-p.asp (http://www.triumph-online.co.uk/scottoiler-mk7-touring-kit--free-brake-bleed-kit--1-ltr-f365-spray-4961-p.asp), it in Transit to me should arrive today or tomorrow.

Has anyone fitted a Scottoiler to a Girly 955i, I know they have been fitted to a Steamer, one of the guys from the Rat site has sent me piccys fitted to his carb model.

Someone told me they could be fitted to a Tigger as they don't have a vacuum, I am a bit confused.

As above, that's what i had to do with mine...

 Mine is also very sensitive.. a slight turn of the dial and oil everywhere, worth noting in case the triumph adaptor has anything to do with it...

Cheers Guys, I thought it could be done,

When I had the touring scotty fitted to the TDM, I had it set about 1 for summer and 3 for winter but heavy ice I set it to 5, but when it snowed it took the car.

When you fit it, keep it well away from the throttle linkage (you have three pipes to choose from), and tie-wrap everything up nice and neat afterwards and you'll be fine.

All fitted, nothing fowling. The only slight issue I got is the Number plate is now too far forward for the illimination light  :?

I think I wil get some small number plate lights think they are led's and fix them to the plate and run the wires.

something like this

http://www.mandp.co.uk/productinfo/5756 ... hts/Motrax (http://www.mandp.co.uk/productinfo/575682/Bodywork/Number-Plate-Lights/Motrax)

or

http://www.mandp.co.uk/productinfo/5391 ... ghway-Hawk (http://www.mandp.co.uk/productinfo/539151/Custom/Lights/Highway-Hawk)

I will post piccys soon.

can we have pics on the fitment.

I do have some auto oiler fitted to bike, that was already on there when I bought it, will have to see what brand and how it is fitted.

I think there is no oil in there though?
What oil do you use for such devices, I've never had anything like this on any bike before?

First identify the make of chain oiler, then look for their brand of chain oil on the net or wherever.  You can use simple chainsaw oil, or other motorcycle chain oil brands, but whether they meter the oil correctly depends on the viscosity.
