scottoiler on aprilia rs125

[bktan]

hi has anyone installed this on an RS?

read the instructions and was told to DRILL ?!! a hole in the carb, that doesn't sound like an easy job for a day to day DIY-er like moi.

is there an easier way? or a cheaper auto chain lube product in the market?

Not the carb, the inlet rubber. The scottoiler needs a vacum to operate... I had one on my NSR, just plonked a hole straight in and ran the hose from that, worked fine.

how did u drill the inlet rubber..?? from the scottoiler's website my carb looks like this

https://www.scottoiler.com/resources/files/5_M_CLASSICS_wee.gif

and according to them, i should be drilling the carb instead cos the inlet rubber is too short/small, not enuff space to fit the spigot

is ur nsr125 inlet rubber that small too?

this is a schematic of my bike's carb

Nothing against ya mate, but it's a funny image to me.

RS riders always going on about how they're faster, better looking and sportier...then someone comes along and bangs a scottyoiler on to it. heh heh

Good idea mate - especially going into winter!
though i didn't even know they needed a vacuum so i can't help you.
I know some bikes have a vacuum hose from the carb to open a fuel valve though...does the RS use one of those?

Hi

I would go for putting a hole in the carb rubber to mount it. However I haven't seen the Scottoiler mounting kit for a 2 stroke.

Although it would be possible to drill a hole in the carb it is not something I would care to do by hand, rather better to use a vice to hold it and then use a piller drill.

All the best

Or you could try to make one of these home made oilers (I have no idea if they work or not):
