Ive been rocking this mod for a while. Running my Scott oiler to my front sprocket. Works well.

That is smart.

I dont like the rear mount system, to messy. The bit of black tube I used is the spare vacuum tube you get with the kit. My Scottoiler is mounted using the battery strap.

I agree, had one fitted to the rear of my cbr many years ago.
That looks a lot better.

What was your intended destination of the tube .. the outside surface of the front sprocket .. Yes ?

Kill two birds with one stone, and replace the rear shock instead.

More deck height, and better handling.

It handles much better with the right spring in it. Not perfect but heaps better. No Im not going to put an Ohlins in it. I may find something else one day. But dropping $1500 on a rear shock on a 4k bike seems silly.

My handling will improve with me up skilling and getting my bars where I want them. Oh and Im trying to make mounts for my Ohlins steering damper.

In all the time I thrashed the living shit out of my Hornet, I cannot think of a single time it shook it's head. Why are you putting on a steering damper.

I have a tremor, like a Parkinson's one. Not as bad and not going to kill me. But when Im at speed I can induce a small wobble.

Im changing to Thar bars to get my bars as narrow as possible, this reduces my small inputs and a damper for just in case. No the bike is very stable. Im not....
