The curvy has an ideal location for the RMV. Remove the little black plastic panel on LHS below the rider seat and you will see two tapped holes in the frame next to the shock. These holes will happily accept the standard scottoiler mounting bracket on the supplied bolt. The RMV is then secure, out of sight and easy to get at to fill up / adjust. There are some photos of this type of installation somewhere on the forum if you have a search. If the oil delivery tube is routed a la Lozzo with p-clips on the underside of the swing arm or behind the chain guard it will be virtually invisible.

Make sure you get the special part to insert in the vacuum pipe for your curvy, FOC from Scottoiler.

Thanx 4 the pics, will attempt this 2morrow on me day off. if i get any probs will call scottoiler 4 help(or maybe pm lozzo!!)

Just Finished !! started about 11 ish this morning as i wanted a differant solution to fitting the oil pipe to the swing arm (rather than cable ties and am very reluctant to drill holes in it just yet, sorry Lozzo) so off i went to the local DIY store and sourced some extra heavy duty Water resistant velcro. Anyway, fitted the RMV in the space between the left hand side rear fairing so i could keep the underseat storage, routed all the pipes and then used said velcro to secure the oil pipe to the wing arm, dont know how long it will last but it looks neater than the cable ties anyway. Will post pics as soon as i figure it out.

And another, i located the RMV behind the left side (sitting on) rear fairing panel to a pre existing tapped hole.scottoiler7_1349.jpg
Can any one tell me if this is an ok location for the oil hose?scottolier_1356.jpg

Just be careful if using a paddock stand if the pads go under the s/arm - it could flatten or displace the oiler pipe.

Simon, that looks ok to me mate. As long as the pipe isn't in any danger of getting chewed by the chain it should be ok there. Nice neat job.

I'll back up what punyXpress says about paddock stands, but you can always pull the pipe off the velcro before putting a paddock stand under...or fit bobbins and never have to worry about it.

Shouldn't be a problem, just check for any signs of rubbing after a few miles as you don't want that bursting all over the rear wheel!

Good job.
