Default Scottoiler. What do I need?

... newish to the .org and have encounterd lots of people talking about Scottoiler. Now I ride about 50miles every day and plan to all through winter. Im also touring europe hopefully for a few months next summer. From what I gather its an essential tool. I just dont know much about it - apart from it lubes your chain!

What do I need to buy to get this thing strapped on to the bike and working? An idiots guide please!!

Has anyone got the stuff for sale?

Have stumbled across this:

Is this everything I need?

word of advice, mount in an easy place to get at. I have just fixed mine to the pillion pegs because i was getting so many problems with mine. Could of been the installer but i just didn't like it.

Good while tool for 50 mile a day treks but need to keep on top of cleaning pipework and checking it's working correctly.

Actually for a pointy you don't need the T-piece.

Have they changed the kit?
I don't recall needing anything different when I fitted mine but that was a long time ago.

£70 is OK but not a blinding price, you may be able to get one for less. Dunno if HG still have a sale on, but 20% off RRP would be cheaper than that.

As far as fitting goes it is straight forward and there is a good fitting guide on the Scottoiler website.
