REVIEW
SCOTTOILER E-SYSTEM
WORDS & PHOTOS : Ben Wilkins , Doug Cooper
With a decent chain coming in at $ 280 these days , we ’ ll try anything to make them last longer . Scottoiler ’ s eSystem v3.1 promises to do that and more , so we gave it a 15,000km Kiwi torture test .
Scottoilers seem to have been around on my motorcycling radar forever . I remember seeing black and white adverts for them in the back of Motor Cycle News in the early 1990s . I eventually fitted one to my 2000 Aprilia Falco , which I sold 45,400km later still running the same chain and sprockets , with plenty of life still left in them . That was one of the vacuum operated vSystem jobbies . I toured all over Europe on that bike and appreciated only having to top it up with oil every couple of weeks . Job Done . It ’ s not just touring riders the Scottoiler
