Frequently Asked Questions
How does the xSystem motorbike chain oiler from Scottoiler work?
The xSystem chain oiler is an electronically pumped system, so the oil is forced from the reservoir to the chain. The inbuilt accelerometer senses the bikes movement and will automatically start-stop the lubrication when you start your bike.
How far can I go before I have to refill the reservoir?
The range on this kit is up to 1500 miles (depending on flow rate, speed, etc.) between reservoir refills – check the reservoir limited through the sight glass on each side.
How much power does the xSystem need?
When the engine is off, the xSystem draws less than 1 milli-amp of power. This is significantly less than the current drawn by a modern alarm so you don’t need to worry about the power drain on the battery.
What oil does the Scottoiler xSystem take?
All Scottoiler motorbike chain oiler kits use our very own oil specially developed for use with a motorcycle chain lubricator system. Our oil works better because it has a low tack additive to ensure dirt doesn’t stick. This gets the oil to work on lubricating and protecting from corrosion.
