Scottoiler Woes
I have a scotoiler that I fitted to my SV without to much bother, all excpet the nozzle to go onto the chain sprocket that is.
I currently have the white plastic pipe bent at about 45 degrees against the bobbin mounting point in order that the black delivery nozzle is at the 6 o clock postion as stated in the fitting guide. I am happy with this position but it keep slipping out and I want to know what other people have done about this. I would love to see any pictures and hear any neat engineering solutions. I am sure that I have seen a pipe that somebody has made up to guide the white pipe to exactly the right place. |

i had the same problem and the solutions quick but not pretty
hold the white tube where its mounted under the swingarm(it will come off otherwise) then get the rest of the tube and bacically try and bend so its on the other side of the sproket, then when you put it back on the right side it rests against the spoket with lots of pressure, the only problem with this is that it does wear through the black tube try and bend the black tube towards the spoket as well i did this to mine and it has sat anyway sat were it should hope it helps |

I just ignored that part of the fitting guide, i have it at between 4 and 5 and it works perfectly. This might not qualify as a neat engineering solution though
