ok so here is a pic of the scottoiler installed today. I will do a writeup but for now I have a query for anyone who uses on of these please.
I went for a 5 minute trip to the petrol station today, and 5 minutes back. Then let the bike idle for 10 minds. The oil has gone about 5 cm into the delivery tube. A long way off the chain nibs.
I checked the flow by allowing the engine to run and sucking on the other end of the delivery tube without the injector nib connected; I was able to pull a bit of oil - the 5cm or so of oil in the tube. Although nothing happens if I dont suck - the oil stays where it is. So the pump is open and oil can flow. When I reconnect the delivery tube to the nib , and sit there, the oil isnt moving. The RMV is set to PRIME and the vaccum is good because I can see the pump moved to the top of the RMV and drops when I kill the engine.
Is this normal and is more time needed??
You can see the RMV top tight and the dual injector bottom right - you can just see the nib on the silver (new) sprocket . The pipework is routed down the frame , behind the kick plate, under the swingarm. not a lot of pipework and I've heard plenty of guys installing their RMV at this location
