    Dirt cheap chain-oiler made from spare parts, easily adjusts to any flow rate, one or two drops per minute is perfect, reservoir bottle has a hole drilled underneath with fuel hose jammed in firmly and sealed tight with araldite. Sits zip-tied out of sight up in the frame. Dispenser is the inside tube part from a spray-mist bottle lid. The small on/off pitbike-type fuel taps are available $15 new on trademe. Tubing is fuel-hose. Use thinner stuff and hide from sight if so inclined. This one's on an old musclebike so exposed plumbing suits and goes with the look. Works faultlessly with sticky chainsaw bar-oil.

    Well done, that doesn't look like a piece of tacky shit in the slightest.

    If looking a bit butch is the only thing wrong with it, I'll still say "Well done that man"

    Yeah I'm still sure it'd be possible to make that oiler look damn fine on a Honda too, wrap the hoses with pink ribbons and she'd be be looking lovely for even the sweetest fireblade or VFR

    All cool though man, because at a stretch the blades are probably the least gay of all the Hondas, despite Rossi once riding a similar looking bike, and the first CBX and possibly a black blackbird escape too. But unfortunately, that oiler would need the pink ribbons to properly match the look of the remaining Honda models out there, so most Honda owners will disregard it as a feasible option and buy the mega-buck scottoiler equivalent instead. It works out good because that way we'd all be happy
