Where have you routed your pipe?


I bought my Fazer 9 months ago and it had one already fitted, with the pipe tied under the swing arm, aimed at the outer face of the rear sprocket at the 6 o'clock position, just like in every online guide I've ever read (letting the oil hit the sprocket rather than the chain and therefore spreading more evenly).  :\


I've regularly checked my chain tension and kept it around 35mm, but it has needed regular adjustment which indicates wear and stretching, something a scottoiler is meant to reduce.


A couple of days back my chain went a knacker (didn't snap luckily), and it looks like the scottoiler was only lubing one side of it, as the other side is rustier than a 2 year old Skyjet!  :lol


So if you use a scottoiler, do you have any suggestions/advice as to where I should aim my pipe?

Can nitron shocks be serviced or overhauled by nitron?

To avoid hijacking, time for 20 questions! :lol

A slight problem
the oil feed pipe at the front of the engine is leaking, when I took it off it has had a bodge repair done on it in the past.
After cleaning it up, I soldered the hole up.
Alas it has started leaking again
any advice or help, as they want £70 for a new one
thanks

I'll probably pay another visit to the Tank Museum at Bovington sometime this year, as I didn't take my camera last time and would like to get a few snaps. No date set as yet, but I'd like to do it when the weather is a bit warmer so I don't have to carry too much kit around the museum with me. Anybody interested in making a run of it - bit different to just a route ride?

Hi All

Sorry for what is no doubt a common question, but as the weather is looking like drying up, i thought i'd give the old girl a service of sorts (the bike that is ).


Has anyone any got any oil type recommendations? There's currently a batch of 10w-40 'Yamalube' in there but handbook info seems to lend itself towards 10w 30?


Much obliged!

My job gives me a great insight into road safety and this morning I found myself dealing with a poor HD rider that had came together with a small HGV. He was wearing an open faced helmet and is now a few teeth short and has a seriously painful jaw along with other injuries.
I'm not a law man so don't know the laws on lids but when is a helmet not a helmet? Or when does a helmet become a hat?
