I've had scottoilers on my last two bikes.

Fitted by me, setup by me. There is a small amount of oil gets on the rear of my number plate but certainly nothing on my clothing.

The majority of issues seems to be caused in the fitting and the setup. On mine the reservoir needs filling nearer to every 1,000 miles and my chain only seems to need adjusting once between services.

The chain stays clean but sufficiently lubricated, without getting covered in sticky chain lube that attracts detritus and needs cleaning before re lubing.

Duc - if you want to pop round to me in North Swindon I'm more than happy to have a go at tweaking yours and see if we can get it to play ball.


After, literally, years of spraying chain lube I'm now absolutely converted to scottoiler.
