    Chain lube

    Anyone every consider put a chain oiler on an XR400. I recently purchased a nice example and the chain was quite dry. I have applied a spray on lube and have used a few times now (must remember each time I go out) but wondered whether a Scott oiler would be a good idea? Any thoughts guys.
    Not sure where I'd put (no comments!), but possibly up behind the carb on the frame in front of the air box.
    Just don't like the idea of dry chain.....

    Scott oiler do one for dirt bikes it fits where your bar pad would go never tried one just made my own oil can off e bay £2.99 a bit of pipe and some jubilee clips



    Give it a pump every now and then and it drip feeds onto the chain a bit crude but it works well
