Scottoiler Fitting K9

[TheRamJam]

Hi guys i've recently just bought a scottoiler and plan on fitting it myself.

Only been out on my bike twice and there are spots of rusting on the chain already and on the discs. Seems fairly straightforward to do. I just have on question really.

Does anyone know where the vaccum is and what fitment it needs? does the part just fit onto the spigot or do I need to cut the pipe and use the T-piece?

Thanks in advance

The vacuum pipe fits straight over the spigot on the throttle body. No need to cut anything. Go to the technical section on Scottoiler website, there are downloadable specific fitting guides for most bikes. Download the one for SV650 03-on. I still have a copy, so if you need to PM me your email addy and I will send it.

There is a spare vacuum with a cap on the rear cylinder. Pop the cap off, attach the pipe, and job-jobbed!

The picture in the guide makes the parts look far larger than they are... if you look at the engine underneath the tank you should see a golden coloured part of engine with two little pipes sticking out with black rubber bungs on them. It took me a while to spot, and even longer to get them off!

It's not spare, it is used to attach vacuum gauges when balancing the throttle bodies...... :rolleyes:

It is the one to use though, just remove scotty when balancing the TBs.

There's a guide on the scottoiler site...

If I recall correctly, the front cylinder has 1 and the rear has 2?

Ohh will take a look at the weekend.....

I've just ordered one, and compared my K8 to my mate's K4 - he seemed to have 2 spare places to join next to each other on the same cylinder, but mine already had a hose connected to one of them...

Don't know what changed between K4 and K8, but I'm assuming I can use the "spare" one for the scottoiler

You can, both are vacuum take offs.

Do they not have the vacuum take offs on a curvey?

permission to hi-jack this thread? how/where do you route the pipe to the swingarm? the rmv is under the pillion seat on the right hand side, so far the pipe is cable-tied down the rear sub across the battery tray then drops down to the swingarm then runs along the bottom of the swingarm, does that sound right/good enough to run well?

[DaveW]

When I fitted mine a couple of weeks back I did like you said and brought the pipe by the battery tray and down behind the cover below the seat. In order to keep it away from the chain I then passed it though the top of the rear shock mount and super glued it in the supplied channel to the inside of the swingarm before taking it under the swingarm. I then ran it under the swing arm using channel, super glue and cable ties.

Pick the SV650 2003 and SV1000 as it's basically the same.
