Scottoiler on front sprocket, pics anyone?

[Sue]

I am very seriously considering fitting a scottoiler and having done a search of the forum I notice that some of you fit them to feed onto the front sprocket. (To enable use of paddock stand) Please can someone post a pic so that I can see how this is done.


Thanks

If you want some copper pipe and a clip let me know
cheers

thanks Staff. I've got one on my KTM and I like the feeling that the chain is always lubed. I'm considering fitting one to the Rs, but I haven't made the decision yet.

Thanks for those - I was thinking that this method is more difficult because I thought that the pipe needed to be touching the sprocket and it's quite tight under that plastic cover.

tidy job, wish I had thought of using it on the front sprocket as its a lot tidier than fitting it on the rear

I've got mine on the front sprocket, but went through the sprocket cover, and used a 90 degree plastic thing and P clip provided by Scottoiler who were trying to develop a specific Ducati front sprocket kit. Not sure if they finished development, mine was a prototype

Will post a pic if anyones interested

[Sue]

Yes, pic please, as may give me alternative ideas on how to fix this up myself. (or alternatively might give Scottoiler a call) Am really keen to get a nice neat result.

OK

Here are some very small pics - If you need better ones PM your E Mail and I'll send you some

The resevoir is hidden behind the side panel, and just uses the scottoiler standard mount glued to the inside of the panel.

I have used the Red oil which is thicker - not sure this is necessary

[Stafford]

I made my Oiler mount out of some 3-4mm thick sheet rubber. Get a square'ish piece (subject to size of oiler) and then cut four slits about a quarter of the way in from each end to about a third of the way across. Use the main middle section secured around the frame with tie wraps then fold the other pairs of flaps around the oiler again securing with tie wraps. This makes it all a little tighter inside the side panel and hides it well. Saves having to glue it to the panel.
Hope this makes sense.
You can then use the Scott oiler mount to hold two resistors behind the other side panel for your rear indicators :thumbsup:

Thanks for the suggestions. Will be fitting one on next rainy day. (Probably tomorrow !?)
