  • Tutoro chain oiler?

    Has anyone fitted one of these to a Kat yet? i've got fed up paying too much for the Scottoiler and these things are only £16 so i fancy giving one a go, the only thing confusing me is where to mount the damm thing.

    superb autonomous automatic motorcycle chain oiler, no vacuum or electrical required. Precision machined and Hand Built in England.

      i've had one on a previous bike, but it was destroyed when i crashed, but there seems to be fewer places to mount it on the kat, it's a very simple design you just have to turn it on and off manually.

        Have you looked at the Loobman? http://www.chainoiler.co.uk/

        Decent enough unit, does a nice job keeping the chain lubed and lasting well, but makes a huge mess. You don't have to turn it on or off, just a squeeze before heading out. I took mine off because it got in the way of my swingarm stand, and because it made such a mess all over the swing arm and rear wheel. I'm regretting taking it off now, but my wheel and swingarm are much cleaner.

          the lubeman one never appealed to me, seems more of a hassle than it worth

            not a big fan unless your doing serious cross country touring. they sling a large amount of oil onto the rim/tire that will migrate to the tire surface.

            Belray makes travel size cans of Superclean chain lube. Safer and looks better

              Really, more of a hassle than having to remember to turn the other one off? Loobman procedure for me was: start bike, put on helmet and gloves, press bottle, ride to where ever, repeat procedure next morning. If I forget to squeeze it, no big deal, It's not like I'm going to be parked in a puddle of oil.

                i made myself a home made version of scootoiler.
                parts needed:
                you need a tank, i used i think its a water for screen splash from Lada
                you need tube, any oil resist tube would do, i used medical tubes
                to make it work auto, youll need a electro valve, i found one thats being used for auto gas, works on 12v and uses maybe 2Amps.
                and for lubing you need 2 medical needles and some copper tubes. so everytime you turn the key on your bike it starts lubing your chain, adding an extra valve (manuallu operated) will give you a control how many drops per minute...
                cost? 10-15 Euros

                    So 12-15€. Does that include shipment?
