I don't know the thread, but his name is Andy & he replied on
8/4/2004.
just type in Scott oiler to the search function in the message board & the Q&A's will come up.
some pics attached.

final feed

[tebby]

resevoir mounting.
just run the tubing inside the frame down past the footrest bracket & leave a little slack to the swing arm.
I superglued a small section of the soft push in channel about 2" long underside of the swingarm to provide a secure starting point for the tube.
I used a scott oiler on a triumph trophy tourer, (one of the early ones of the new generation) & it worked great.
keeps the chain clean & crap off of the rear wheel once you have it set right.

view from footrest showing tube feeding under swingarm.
you can add a few more zip ties to make sure the tube stays
hidden but it's no big deal if it shows, it's a minor cosmetic
flaw for a mojor riding benefit.

hope these are of some help.
cheers

Mine is the same except i used clear cable ties so they don't stand out so much and i glued the feed tube to the underside of the swingarm so its hardly visible.
I think Andy arranged his so it drips onto the front sprocket.

No he didn't................

Here's the thread with photos........
Scottoiler thread
Hope it helps!

guys thanks a bunch, i expect to receive my Scott Oiler Mk7 universal kit tomorrow and will fit it over the weekend armed with some great photos and tips.

Rockhopper is your feed tube still stuck to your swinging arm ? if so what did you clean it with and what glue did you use ?

[rockhopper]

I might have meant another Andy!!

My kit came with a length of soft plastic that you pushed the feed tube into. The other side was flat. You just glue it to the underside of the swingarm. There was also some superglue in the kit which has now held for almost three years.

Scottoiler don't recommed feeding the front sprocket anyhow, they say that the higher speed of the sprocket compared to the rear one flings the oil off before it has time to work.
