scottoiler fitment
 
Just got a Scottoiler and am wondering where the best place to put the reservoir is.
No coments about sun and shine please.

We put ours behind the side panel. Nicely out of sight, but easy to get to to refill.

This or if you dont mind loosing a bit of underseat storage pop it under the pillion seat.

On my curvy I put it under the black panel under the seat.
On the pointy I put it on the sub-frame above the rear wheel.

First one stayed nice and clean, but I needed an Allen key to get to it and it got hot from the exhaust. The second one gets dirty but is instantly accessible and stays cool.

If you go into the main site and check out the FAQ section, there are a couple of write-ups about fitting a scottoiler :D

Don't forget when fitting to the SV (carb'ed) it requires the Suzuki T-Piece (RM-150250) available free of charge from Scottoiler.

Mine is cable tied to the sub frame, between the subframe and the rear LHS plastics. It's accessible from underneath the pillion seat.

Mine's under the pillion seat, there's no room for anything else in there anyway, much to my disappointment, not even my butties & banana. (K5)

Thanks for the suggestions.
Fitted it yesterday at work, not much else to do for 12 hrs.
In the end I fitted the bottle under the passenger seat/rear seat cowl.
There is a hole which is made for it. I bent the small 90' bracket so that the bottle is at more of an angle.
I can still fit waterproof trousers under there aswell.
I will try and add a piccy as I am well impressed with the fitment.
