This is the first motorcycle that I've owned in the last 20+ years that has a drive chain. After 30,000 + miles and two sets of chains and front/rear sprockets I'm thinking of simplifying my life as far as chain maintenance goes. The Scottoiler eSystem has caught my eye and I would be willing to spend the insane $299.00 that it costs if it works.
"Works" is defined by me is that I no longer have to get on my hands and knees with rags, multiple cans of chain cleaner, and chain lube every other fuel stop. I tried to skimp on that practice one summer two years ago and toasted the chain in about 7,000 miles.
I am not just a fair weather rider, and do a lot of highway commuting so the chain is exposed to rain and high heat pretty often.
If you have an eSystem installed how do you like it and is it performing as advertised? Do you still have to clean the chain every 500 or so miles?
TIA
