Bonneville T100 (2006) Oil Leak

[sikatri]

I'd say so.. I've never seen this system before in any other bike.
I'll see if it gets too messy, I might uninstall it. I've only bought the bike so I need a bit of time ;-)

I’m thinking, that might be a mod I’d be removing without hesitation. I never heard of these until your thread. I did some internet searches and some like them and others have had leak issues. I’m not big into possible leak issues, so my choice would be removing it. Chains get dirty anyway and need to be inspected regularly.

They have been around a fair while and are not uncommon, some people swear by them, so I’m not knocking them. As the saying goes try it you might like it.

Fair enough. Hope you’ll report back with the pro’s and con’s.

Yve’s has it on his bike Sikartri, but yes I’m sure he will.

Sorry for mixing. Typing and playing with our new kitten. My concentration is not as good as his. LoL.

I’ve seen a few reports from people who really love the Scott oilers . I believe a nice increase in chain life is common .
