Bit of tweaking today

[lew600fazer]

I have been playing around with my Tutoro oil feed to see if I can get a more even feed across the chain. Hopefully this will also lead to less throw off onto the back wheel, what you reckon?

Wish my chain and sprockets were as clean as that!

Most likely get more mess under the cover & less lube into the chain , I have a TUTORO on my Fazer & it was on my Versys before that , for what it is (cheap) it works ok .

Can you pop a pic on to see were your feed is, I had it originally feeding to the side of the rear sprocket, which to be honest was doing the job. I was at a meet up in September and a mate had his rigged to feed to the front sprocket as he reckoned he would get less throw off on to the rear wheel. If it does not workout it is only a5min job to change it out, oh my bike is an MT09 by the way. I stay on this forum for the craic and some good ideas as well. The MT forum is a bit quiet.

Have a Tutoro auto fitted to three of my bikes - love them what with no wiring or vacuum lines needed. Interested how you get on feeding the front sprocket. Keep us posted

I thought they were supposed to feed oil onto the rear sprocket which then gets pushed into the side plates of the chain by centrifugal (or centripetal if you prefer) force. Looking at the oil feed in your photo I would have thought that very little of the oil will go where it's needed?

I have a scott oiler on my fzs 600 feeding the front sprocket and to be honest apart from having no visible feed pipe down the frame and along the swing arm it is really no improvement and I would say worse at lubing the chain.
Don't ask me why but despite the feed nozzle being directly over the front sprocket the evidence is running down the centre stand and not over the chain, slick centre stand movement though.

Just had a eureka moment on that,just like in the shower when you get your best ideas or answers to tricky problems. Or is that just me.
Anyhow, if the chain is moving forward through the chain housing it could be causing a forward draft of air thus blowing any oil droplets forward and away from the chain
Anyway, I'm converting mine back to rear sprocket feed.
That's if I haven't sold it first. ( shameful plug).
