Not fitted this yet hence a good. However Scottoiler is an established product with a good reputation. Almost essential for a motorcycle that is so low that it won't take a centre stand.
It's getting fitted this Thursday by my Triumph dealer whist doing the 600 mile service. Noteworthy they will only fit the x and e systems not the v.
As to Sportsbikeshop, their service is consistently of a high standard.

Don't waste your money

I bought this for a brand new Speed Twin 900. When checking the bike over prior to the 1st service, after 2 months & 540 miles, I found the dispensing pipe at the sprocket had detached from the swing arm. The adhesive had given way between the adhesive pad and the plastic bracket. I.E.: on the Scottoiler assembly. The pad remained firmly stuck to the swing arm and was difficult to get rid of. I had carefully prepared the swing arm surface before sticking the bracket on. Looks like Scottoiler couldn't be bothered to do the same to their side of the pad.

Whilst removing the rest of the oiler, I found that the oil reservoir had been leaking all over the rear of the bike's frame.

Now I'm the proud owner of a £200 oily piece of junk.

Doses one drop per unit time. Therefore not temp dependent like the previous versions. Well made.

Great

I've wanted a Scottoiler for ages, but not being very mechanically-minded have never got one.
This version is great, and even I could install it.
The only difficulty I had on my bike was routing the piping from under the seat (where I put the reservoir) to the rear sprocket. In the end I found a way through and it was fine.
I was planning to buy a shaft drive bike next for commuting, but after trying this I think there's no need really.

Easy Fit.

Have only used vacuum models previously - always a problem trying to locate the vacuum pipe & T in.
Have a Honda X-ADV now and you can't even see the engine so this was the best option- Fits neatly in the luggage space beneath the seat. Took about an hour to fit - really pleased.

New scotoiler

01 November 2022 by Allan M

Got a new F900XR and was OK manually cleaning my chain during the summer. However the thought of scrubbing it in winter as I ride all year, wasn't appealing so bought the X-system as I didn't want to mess about cutting vacuum tubes etc. This is version 2 so that YouTube installation video's are a bit out of date as this has no separate check valve. Easy enough to fit although a bit of a pain to tighten the retaining bolt on the swing arm, but other than that working well - no more scrubbing for me!

Simple but very effective

28 October 2022 by Philip M

Keeping the chain oiled effectively has never been simpler. I had considered the vacuum driven product but spent more as I didn't want to cut into the vacuum hose. Great decision as its so simple to fit it's unbelievable. Once primed the oil flows exactly right and the chain looks perfect.

Excellent

I rework for the NHS and ride my bike for work all year. It's no fun keeping on top of chain maintenance in the winter when every ride seems to leave the bike filthy, but this really helps by doing some of the work for you.
I used to have the vacuum system on another bike, but this one is easier to install and a lot more controllable.
It is pricey as others have said, but I expect it will pay for itself in reduced wear over time. Especially considering that I do around 10k miles a year. If you do a lot of miles on a chain driven bike, it's a "must have" really.

Effective

Still early days as not using bike as much but the oiler has performed as expected. Easy to set up, took a while priming but seems ok. Only issue is stuck for decent mounting points but other than that fine.

Superb suport and help for a faulty scottoiler

06 October 2020 by Kim G

I was very unlucky with my scottoiler as it malfunctioned and leaked. This is quite unusual.
Sportsbike went out of their way to get me a replacement at a time of c19 lockdown and nil stock from suppliers. But looking through their stores they found me a replacement unit. It was refreshing to get calls to advise what they could do for me, and point out the supply issues
Superb service
To a point they are my number 1 supplier

Scotoiler X System

02 April 2020 by Jim

I fitted this just before the "lockdown", so can only really talk about the fitting not its performance in use as the bike is now SORNed! I had one of the older vacuum based oilers from Scotoiler on my previous bike and it worked well, but was not an easy install. The X - System is so much easier - only needing a connection to the battery, and routing the tubing to supply the oil to the injector. I think the system is very good, but quite expensive for what it actually is, hence the 4 vs 5 stars.

Pretty good

13 April 2019 by Liam

Overall very good, but reservoir leaks a little from the top filler when bottle is fairly full. Could be that I don't have enough lean angle on reservoir so should fill it less. Other than that great. It's on an Mt10

Wouldn't Be Without One

07 April 2019 by Peter W

Always had Scottoilers on my bikes but only the V system upto now . Didn't want to interfere with the vacuum pipe on my Tiger 800 and I don't care for the handlebar control on the E system so that left the X system . Thought £200 was a bit salty tho' . Fitted it this morning hopefully try it out tomorrow .

Decent system

30 August 2018 by Sam

Decent system, does what its meant to do. Is it worth 200 quid, no its not. The fit and finish could be improved but it really is a minor gripe. its not bulky with no bulky controller upfront like the Esystem which is mainly why I got it over the Esystem. Comes with pretty much everything you need, I would purchase the no screw sticky pads from somewhere as the sticky pads that come on the back of the clips don't stick to anything so glad I had some spare stick pads to put on the back of the clips!

Had cause to contact Scottoiler during fitting and for some setting up advice and they were ace replied quickly and with detailed answers and took my feedback on board.
