and sorry rick - even if i was in the same situation as you, i would still go for a scottoiler everytime

(Actually - I am but!)

constant oil is always going to be better than intermittent imho

and agree with andy - which TB?

or do you mean the crankcase breather?

You attach a plastic connector onto it (vacuum damper) and run the tubing from it to the reservoir. My damper wouldn't fit so I've heated it up and once it was on, I've secured it with a small jubilee clip.

Some have 2 some have 1, there is an explanation, but I don't know

will be fitting soon and had a look on the bike for the vacum outlet and it was on the RHS as you sit on the bike...is this right?

The sprocket cover on mine is from Debz' 06 Tuono (she has the same, but in carbon fibre). The nozzle is held inside the sprocket cover with a small 'P' clip, you can see the silver button head screw on the cover, and feeds onto the outer face of the sprocket, so the oil gets forced onto the inner face of the chain.

I have done it with a Scottoil quick release twisty thingy just above the cover, so I can take the cover off and the nozzle stays put inside it and the cover isn't left dangling around on the end of the hose. Also it means there's no re-aligning needed when the cover goes back on as the nozzle's already in the right place.

Reet canny!

I know this a little tight of me to ask but this could help someone move on something they no longer need.
And also with the trip less than three weeks and being costly,
Does anyone want to sell a scotoiler vacuum type and have all tha fitting instructions please?
New prefered but a good second hand unit would be also considered

The fitting instructions are available on their website

Both your falcos are slower colours so all is good - the very early black/red faster falcos seem to have sometimes have had mille parts - so some of us have had to peruse the mille instructions

It's not a case of mille parts it's a case of the early throttle bodies for both bikes doesn't have the vacuum connections - hence the need to used special adapters on those bikes when balancing the TBs .... and having to connect the vacuum take-off for the scottoiler differently.

Nursie is right, however, that the fitting guides are on the website.

Nursie is right

finely he agrees with me about the black / red ones being faster.... we had to wait a while for the poor lamb's dementia to clear but.....

We've been here before - there is no evidence of this (unless the RAC truck underneath has been given the "Thrust SSC treatment")

Just because they are different doesn't meant the bike is faster. If you remember I have swapped to the earlier ones too. There was NO noticeable difference in performance - however the induction noise was louder. I think the change was made with an eye to noise regs.
Aprilia didn't revise the bikes's power figures after the change.

It did nothing to quieten you two down!
