Scottoiler installation during bike warranty period - Page 2 - SV650.org

Thanks,

I've been red almost only good stuff about the oliers - i really did doubt the claims he had.
Anyway, the problem that made me ask about the cancellation of warranty period is that i need to cut the vacum hose and put the T-pipe in between. I know it would not impact any bike performance and also i think it would not make life shorter for other parts (at least if i do it right or if i do the right hose

). But that gave me an idea that he might to refuse to do the warranty repairs if he hasn't installed the T-pipe by himself.
I don't have many Suzuki dealers around. In fact i think he's the only "official" dealer in the country. Of course we've got some dealers in here who deals with a Suzuki cars, but i don't really think they would be able to repair or order parts for Suzuki bikes.
Eventually, i think i will do the Scotty installation by myself. The bike is just to new, that's the reason that made me worry of the warranty period.

You dont need to cut any hoses on the K5, there are two vacume connectors, one on each throttle body (clever eh!).

Now these are useally covered by a black plastic cap, and they are used to measure the vacume per throttle body with a set of vacume gauges. When you need to balence the throttle bodies. However, one does not need to balence his throttle bodies everyday.

You can just connect your scottoiler to that

There is also another product called lubeman which runs off of the battery, but i've not got any idea how good they are.

BMW do some nice topboxes! (No, really they do - but they do suit them!)

People write about the fling on the back wheel, but most of the fling is on the front sprocket which is of course much smaller. If you set your Scottoiler so that there is minimal fling at the front you will find that the rear stays pretty clean - the front is coverd up with the clutch cover panel and so is not seen so easily!

I can

? I think i need to do a little research before the installation. I haven't took bike aparts to yet. But that seems to be good idea of course. Thanks for that.

3 week old K5 1300 miles scottoiler from new - chain in gr8 condition, well lubed and clean, fling on inner rim was a pain to clean off till I sorted out a paddock stand, now a piece of p**s. Got into more trouble with my wife cos fling onto the number plate dripped onto patio

.

Since you don't have to cut anything on a K5, I shouldn't think that fitting a Scottoiler would affect your warranty. As others have said, it sounds as if your dealer is full of sh*t.

I don't think that the dual injector is worth fitting, having had one on my SV.
