removing scotoiler from pointy 650

[steveg]

Hi
Pick up triumph on Monday and want to take off scotoiler

Can't be arsed to remove seat / tank / air box to get to throttle body pipe for scotoiler

Was thinking of just cutting the tube from throttle body used by scotoiler and taping up , is this ok all will it cause problems ?

Cheers Steveg

What's the reason why the oiler is coming off?

Taking the seat / tank / air box off wouldn't take more than 15mins tops surely...?

I can get to it on my pointy without removing anything. Do in from the RHS using your thumb and index finger as a pincher. I managed to do and put the black nipple back on this way.

Hi Dan

Tried from RHS can't get hands in ,bike seems ok ( I've cut and tapped up tube)

Cheers Steve

You'll need the elbow damper you left on the SV for the Triumph, and possibly a new piece of hose to cut into the Sprint's vacuum pipe. A pair of long nose pliers shoud rwch in to pull the elbow damper off, and then put a new cap back on the brass spigot.

Thanks Lozzo could not find my long noise pliers , so just borrowed a pair and all sorted now

Cheers Steveg

If you need a new pice of hose to fit the vacuum pipe, Scottoiler themselves were supplying them free of charge. I know they did do this for owners of Daytona 955i's, because they sent me one.

This page should help you install it to the new bike

You don't need any new vacuum pipe connectors
