    TUTORO chain oiler on the 990S

    I fitted the TUTORO chain oiler to the bike today, hopefully it'll work out well. I've blogged about the installation, but essentially it looks like...

    It's fine, and working ok. I think I'm going to re-route the feed to drop oil at the bottom of the rear sprocket, and also modify the reservoir with a long length of tube, under the tanks up to the handle bars.

    I've had no problems with the valve, which I thought may vibrate out of the unit. Overall I'm pretty happy with it

    Haven't one of those type on either the @ or the "S" (I have the 'other' brand), but no doubt it'll make a huge difference. Prior to fitting one to both of mine, the chain was slightly reminiscent of a large hairy caterpillar trying to chase (and disappear up) it's own *rse. At least now, I can actually see the links!
