  • The new Honda CB1000R gets the chain oiler treatment from the Tutoro Automatic chain oiler. This oiler uses the up and down movement of the bike's suspension to automatically switch on when the bike is in motion, and off when it's parked. So no need to cut into the vacuum system OR plum into the electrics of the bike. Just set up and GO!
    Big thanks to TUTORO for providing the oiler FOC. Despite this generous gifting, all opinions and findings during using this gadget will be my own honest and truthful thoughts!

    Bought the Tutoro 2 weeks ago. I saw your video, and did a lot of comparison. Unfortunatley the shipment was not complete, but after sending a mail, Tutoro replied, and directly sent the missing piece. very good service. Thanks to AndyManCam video's i knew how to install this (thanks Andy - love your videos!). I will keep you posted once I have tested it. I loved the part of the installation that in the end you can put the magnet on the Tutoro device. If oil goes into the tube, you are rewarded for the labour you have put into it. please continue andy with your great video's. looking forward to new video's as well. still thinking if I should by the quickshifter ;-)

    Tutoro's oiler is simplicity in itself. Nick manufactures these 2 miles down the road from me and I've had my auto oiler for 5 years now! Had it mounted on my CBR500R before I ported it over onto my Fazer Thou. I was involved in a development programme with him a while back that allowed me to fit an oiler onto my 07 R1 but found that most people would prefer the auto oiling option with a moderate capacity instead having to manually prime the delivery system at the start of each ride.
    One thing Nick advised me to do was to either cover the unit when you're cleaning the bike with detergent or snow foam. I notice you've got the stone chip shield on it, but the chemicals will attack the polymeric components causing them to swell. I needed to have my lid machined back to be in the right tolerance otherwise it would have cracked the entire reservoir.
    There's a Tutoro user group on facebook which show some of the users routing solutions; enduro bikes, single sided swingarms, braced swingarms etc.

    Good review Andy - I just signed off trading my 2004 GS on a F900XR (chain drive), so missed out on all that mucking around for 16 years! Previously I had a Scottoiler on a VFR800 which I was very happy with but got my mechanic to do the vacuum connection for me. This looks like a much better solution - I'll be ordering one now so hopefully it will arrive in Oz in time for the bike delivery in 3-4 weeks.

    The big issue with the original scottooler was varying flow rates due to temperature. This is solved with the electronic version. It pumps a fixed amount regardless of temp and you can adjust that up or down. It's only two wires on to the battery.

      Absolutely. Like so many motorcycling products where the cheap on will work, but for the extra mile you have to stump up way more cash! If it works for you, then it’s worth it. If it works without, then that’s a money-saving win in the other direction!

    • @scottyuk
      @scottyuk 4 года назад +1

      Agreed. When people have asked me whether an oiler is worth it I always say it depends on the mileage they do. They're a bit of a faff to install and theres the cost to justify. Just depends on the usage 👍

    • @AndyManCam
      @AndyManCam  4 года назад

      I’d possibly go as far as to say that they’re worth it, whatever mileage you do. That is, as long as you’ll one day wear a set of chain and sprockets out. (I once met a guy on a Fazer rideout in 2015 who had a 1999 FZS600, that he bought new, with 12,000 miles on it!) If so the just by doubling the life of the chain, you save the cost of the oiler in replacement parts!

    @czareq90 2 года назад +1

    Great video! I was just wondering if you could instal the reservoir tank straight above the chain, so it can drop the oil straight on the top of a chain instead of using hose wire to provide it all the way down to the sprocket?

    • @AndyManCam
      @AndyManCam  2 года назад

      You could, but the delivery point would need to be very close to the chain to avoid oil just being blown away before it even reaches where it needs to be. This is then made difficult because the swingarm will be constantly moving up and down and also the chain itself will be jumping up and down. So you would have to leave too much gap to avoid smashing the reservoir and as such most of the oil would end up everywhere else except where it needs to go. Delivering it to the sprocket means the oil is never ‚in the air‘. It goes straight into the sprocket and then finds it way directly on to the chain. 👍🏻

      Cheers Russell. Working great so far. I’m loving the larger reservoir than the special edition Scottoiler that i had. I can go for 5-7k km between refills now, so no need to take extra oil for most trips. Well done on the scarefree carefree trip mate! If only they could all always be that way! Oz & Nz would be a truly epic tour. On the bucket list for sure.

    My understanding is that these chains are sealed with grease and do not need to be lubricated--just cleaned.

    • @AndyManCam
      @AndyManCam  2 года назад

      Absolutely correct. But the rollers and sides of the plates rubbing against the sprockets benefits from the extra oil. Without it the sprockets wear out quicker and also the chain heats up more and results in faster degradation of the rubber seals and the grease they hold in. Also an oiled chain is far quieter than a dry one.

Also managed a 4000km round trip and the reservoir was still 1/3 full. Never managed that with the scottoiler, although i had the Louis special edition which is a bit smaller. So far I’m pretty happy with it. Few teething problems until i realized that I’d overfilled it. Since then, all good.

How much extended chain/sprocket life do you expect to get by using the tutoro ?

      I definitely clean the chain way less often. Maybe once a month at most. I’ve yet to see how long I’ll get but I’m on 15,000km so far and i think the chain has maybe another 5-10,000 left. Not bad considering that (IMHO) the Honda OE chain is pretty rubbish!

    • @AndyManCam
      @AndyManCam  5 месяцев назад

      The oil runs off of the sprocket on to the rollers of the chain. Due to capillary action from the close contact between the rollers and the sprocket, the oil works across the whole roller and on to the inside edge of the roller. I can categorically confirm this, because the other side of the sprocket is also wet with oil. The chain has always lasted exponentially longer for me with a chain oiler than without. Ultimately i don’t need to convince you of something, the opposite of which you have already convinced yourself. If you don’t want a chain oiler, good for you. But i know they work and that they keep my chain in good condition for longer.

    • @AndyManCam

      Before oilers, i would get around 10,000km before the chain was loose and flappy. On my last bike, after 20,000km (and the chain was already fitted when i bought the bike) the chain and sprockets still looked like they had plenty of life. I was never the most dedicated cleaner, but still. Over double the life is nothing to be sniffed at. The oil from the oiler is thinner than the spray wax. So it’s thrown off by the oiler and therefore ends up on the rear wheel and the rear of the bike. Though when the settings are right, this is nothing more than a wipe with a cloth once a week.

    There is a risk one will get fed up with the splatter and it sounds like this could be bothersome if you like to keep bikes looking as good as possible, despite all weather riding ... I considered this oiler for my bike but having seen the mess this oiler created on a colleagues bike it's on hold for now. His tail/number plate area and rear wheel gets caked in fling and he just can't dial it in to get a good trade-off setting. Some of the fling must end up on his brake disc as both sides of his wheel get caked up 🤔. Plus, if you want the extra bits 'n bobs fitting kit the price rises steeply. At the moment I'll stick with Wurth dry chain lube spray every 400 or so miles = practically zero fling. I clean chain with parrafin every 600 to 800 miles (I take a small pot on tour with me). When I clean my chain with paraffin it still looks new and after two years of ownership and 14k miles chain tension has never been required to tighten it. Oilers are certainly convenient, particularly on tour, but I have OCD with, ahem, rear-end cleanliness! I hope it doesn't become an issue for you. Thanks for the review, I like how you used the cable tie locking block as an anchor, looks a bit tidier. 👍 Be good if you could provide an update in a few months to see what it's like long term in different temps and climates, oil consumption and range from the reservoir, etc as I'm still considering getting one.

      I totally understand that Critch. I guess it comes down to which end of the cleaning spectrum you’re happiest to spend your time. I prefer to run a rag around the back end (oo-er) once a week than get involved with the chain. Of course now that i have a single sided swingarm and no center stand, cleaning and lubing on tour is exponentially more difficult! TBH I’ve always found that no matter what i do, the bike looks like a swamp tried to eat it when i get back from any tour, so a deep clean is always in order! But being able to forget about the chaintenance (maybe i should copyright that one!) is a huge bonus for me when all i want to do is park the bike and get on with the evening entertainment!

    • @AndyManCam
      @AndyManCam  4 года назад

      Chains need to be cleaned and lubricated. That’s indisputable. Chain oilers are just another way to achieve that. Obviously manufacturers don’t want to fit them because of the increased part count, complexity and end price. Naturally shaft drive is the cleanest and easiest way to solve the Problem, but the added weight, complexity and power loss makes it a less than ideal solution for every platform. To be honest i hated chains and resigned myself to the fact that I’d have to get a super expensive (or very old) BMW. But chain oilers have reopened the world of chain driven bikes to me. Hugely reduced faff and maintenance for relatively low cost. Of course finally having a single sided swing also really helps with the reduction of faff as i now no longer need to disturb the chain adjustment to remove the wheel or worry about chain alignment ever again. All in all, I’m very happy with this setup.

      Hi Cameron. I’m not sure about the size as it has two different diameters i think. My stand is by German brand Stein Dinse though. Hope that helps.

    Does it really need to oil the chain right be the sprocket? @16:33 Can you not do a short tube right there?

    • @AndyManCam
      @AndyManCam  2 года назад

      If you have the oiler lubing anywhere other than at either of the sprockets, then there is far too much movement of the swingarm. This movement prevents you from putting the nozzle close enough and therefore you'd lose most of the oil in the wind. You could mount the nozzle on to the swingarm, but there is still also a lot of movement through chain slap. One jump from the chain and the whole nozzle assembly could be ripped from it's mounts and destroyed forever!

      Good! Still oiling and the chain is still kicking! The hose has hardened a bit around the reservior connection, but that is a relatively easy fix.

    Hello Andy, I wonder where to install the oil container on a 2008 FZ1. Not very mechanical gifted. I can't see where the oil chart mentions can be attached on the above. Any advise?

      Very good. Even after 1500km in horrible torrential rain and cold (video is on the way) the chain just looked like it could maybe do with a little wipe, nothing more! Still oiled and quiet though. So far, I'm happy.

    • @AndyManCam

      In that case, I say go for it! On mine with the single sided arm, chain adjustment is now super easy, but trying to lube it on the road without a paddock stand is a pure exercise in frustration!!

    I think manufacturers should design automatic chain oilers so you buy the bike with it part of the bike already.

    • @AndyManCam
      @AndyManCam  3 года назад

      I think that not everybody likes them, so the cost for the manufacturers would be too much for an unwanted component. I personally think they're brilliant and will never be without one !
